Poem Title:
Poem
The Blitz Poem, a poetry form created by UNSUPPORTED CODE Robert Keim UNSUPPORTED CODE . This form of poetry is a stream of short phrases and images with repetition and rapid flow. Begin with one short phrase, it can be a cliché. Begin the next line with another phrase that begins The third and fourth lines are phrases that begin with the last word of the 2nd phrase, the 5th and 6th lines begin with the last word of the 4th line, and so on, continuing, with each subsequent pair beginning with the last word of the line above them, which establishes a pattern of repetition. Continue for 48 total lines with this pattern, And then the last two lines repeat the last word of line 48, then the last word of line 47. The title must be only three words, with some sort of preposition or conjunction joining the first word from the third line to the first word from the 47th line, in that order. There should be no punctuation. When reading a BLITZ, it is read very quickly, pausing only to breathe. Testing the waters: Dreams scattered dreams mattered Mattered much mattered deeply Deeply touched deeply shattered Shattered lives shattered spirits Spirits mending spirits lending Lending healing lending feelings Feeling hopeful feeling faithful Faithful words faithful deeds Deeds done deeds undone Undone damage undone scars Scars mark Scars wounds Wounds healed wounds flesh Flesh weak weak sight Sight see's sight by faith faith speaks faith marches Marches slower marches with pace Pace is slower pace placed timing timing time we will shine again by grace Unfinished to be continued ....unedited
