This poem was posted as an Elfchen chain example for my Flash Poetry Challenge (8).
This was a fun Elfchen chain collaboration posted May 26, 2021, on Instagram with @twirlingtyphoon_01. I wrote the initial Elfchen and she the second. In case you haven’t guessed, our poem was inspired by the song “Butter” by BTS. Thanks, Disha!
Poetry form: Elfchen (also known as Elevenie)
Elfchen poetry consists of 11 words written in 5 lines as follows:
Line 1: 1 word
Line 2: 2 words
Line 3: 3 words
Line 4: 4 words
Line 5: 1 word
Elfchen chain created by second poet using the first poet’s last word for their first word. Man, that’s smooth, yeah?
