OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,

the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) 

to input and responds thus

 making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon 

unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.
