King !

King B B Belting it strong and cries Body and spirit Beaming into his voice. Guitar his soul appendix Together in spirited lick "Lawd I'm cryin' this out to your sky! I've got and give and feel the blues inside!"

Like my departed father-in-law used to sing "I am going to river and get my rocking chair and if these blues don't leave me I am going to rock on away from here". Great job in explaining BBKing. Sounds like it is headed to the winner's circle. Good luck in the contest. Keep the creative pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by my poems to read for awhile. Sara

AWESOME, Robert, another ETHEREE!! You do me so proud. You know, there are others here that do them too I am sure, so I am so surprised you only now have noticed this form. It's very modern. Mr.Etheree started them by accident maybe 10- to 20 yrs. ago just playing around with syllables. I have over 100 of them. I love them to death because I need restrictions when I write, and this is what I call "free verse but restricted!" So excited to see you doing it!! Luv, Andrea ps glad you liked Avatar!
