Best of Both Worlds

Blank verse dances to five-feet time
but its endline words,never rhyme,
(unlike this poem ,I've begun!)
Its syllables,uneasy scan,
and makes it somewhat, a lost cause
if you cannot locate the pause,
structure helps its refrain along,
constraint,with freedon,its theme song.

I can read the poem under each category however cannot use the "edit" feature to continue with the contest... the newer ones submitted are only in the unread category and are not in the ALL POEMS heading.. so they may be lost to the contest already.. I am not sure how to handle this one Brian..luv.. any suggestions? other than just wiat till Soup finishes and see what happens or just cancel and re do the contest? luv.
