Constance La France Poet Blitz

Notes About The Poem

Pages In Boxes

new pages
old pages
pages of my poetry
pages and pages down under
under my desk dwelling 
under in boxes
boxes dwelling and mingling 
boxes dwelling down under my desk
desk of this writer
desk where I  write sad
sad poems that drip
sad poems I touch 
touch the words dwelling under 
touch and love the pages of sorrow 
sorrow under my desk 
sorrow of my writing 
writing of my life 
writing my mournfullness 
mournfullness has been my muse 
mournfullness has made me a poet 
poet who seeks words to linger down there
poet soul entwined in the pages 
pages down under existing 
pages that wait
wait and exist for dusty years 
wait existing in boxes
boxes of flowing words 
boxes of rhymes and verses
verses of bliss and love 
verses resting down under 
under is love that came from my pen 
under is love forever in painted poems 
poems penned from my soul
poems that dwells on paper below 
below my soul lives between the lines
below my soul  lives on the pages
pages tattered and new 
pages I write
write and place down under 
write poems in the night
night is when muse is alive
night is time for verses and stories
stories written in solitude 
stories beautiful in boxes 
boxes of solitude I have put away 
boxes and boxes and boxes
boxes of poems weeping
weeping words
words . . .
weeping . . .

Jack Horne August 19, 2015 at 2:41 PM looks like this is a very tricky form - don't think i would know where to begin writing this one - a lovely write

Debbie Guzzi August 7, 2015 at 10:00 PM OK until lines 48, 49, & fifty Constance ;) you're almost there! Light & Love Debbie Guzzi August 8, 2015 at 7:32 AM line 48 weeping words, line 49 words, line 50 weeping [Constance leave this be dearheart - with these corrections- try again for fun not for my contest this is good-perhaps- decide the title first - plunk it in the appropriate line & let the words flow controlling you, don't try so hard to control them- this is a stream of consciousness form] Light & Love Constance La France August 7, 2015 at 11:16 PM Gurrrrrrr. ...

Debbie Guzzi August 7, 2015 at 7:18 PM you still have not got it Constance -new pages/old pages/pages of my poetry/ pages and pages down under/under water under the bridge/bridge by the stream/ bridge players/players that cheat/players lose/lose the minds/lose their souls/ souls be damned/souls transform/ transform pride - keep at it. {Just think of it as a puzzle!] transform the universe Constance La France August 7, 2015 at 7:26 PM Thanks Debbie, let me go back and rearrange lines, not as easy as it looks dear heart

Andrea Dietrich August 6, 2015 at 5:46 PM wow, you not only did a blitz, but you also incorporated that theme "down under" Was that part of the challenge? If so, you did very well. So a blitz is supposed to use the end word twice at the beginning of the next two lines? The form seems so foreign to me, I need to study lots of examples. this showed great creativity, Constance.

Shirley Rebstock August 5, 2015 at 7:46 PM I can relate, our life, our musing, our loves on paper, expressed in poems or writings, like boxes of pictures . Enjoyed

Eric Boddie August 5, 2015 at 4:53 PM I have lost so many of my words....or are they simply misplaced nouns and verbs....I have written in binders, folders, copy paper, post its, note pads, even receipts.....I am a slave to the words, my heart's undying beats....;)

Pam Deremer August 5, 2015 at 4:42 PM I enjoyed your poem. Thank you.
