Contest Description

 

here’s another adventure I want to share with you!...create a NEW, ORIGINAL POEM on  MOVIE TITLES as thematic approaches...PICK  ONLY ONE  FROM THE LIST as YOUR MAIN TOPIC

1) BEFORE MIDNIGHT  or 2) BLACK PANTHER  or 3) THE SHAPE OF WATER , or  4) GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY

imagery, fluidity and creative mood are great kickers!.. kindly avoid summarizing the film's plot ; the focus is on the title.

 ...the form we will use is the PENSEE: a  5-line , non-rhyming poetic form depicting a thought or reflection written in such manner: 2/ 4 / 7/  /8/  6/  syl counts…

the movie title is your poem's title

 Subject (2 syllables)

Description of Subject (4 syllables)

Action (7 syllables)

Setting (8 syllables)

Final Thought (6 syllables)

 

my example:

night view

meshed dome in gold

flushing threads of satin crepe

 bench outlining hazy shadows

as lovers taste moon's lips
