( a blitz poem )

Wavy hair

Wavy dancing

Dancing in the dusk

Dancing as a hawk

Hawking like pro

Hawking at you

You're welcoming

You're spellbound

Spellbound at first

Spellbound with sights

Sights to blizzard

Sights to conjure

Conjure a new format

Conjure a ravishing dire

Dire is something anxious

Dire is in need of helping

Helping to sharpen

Helping to write

Write something

Write encourage

Encourage the tipping

Encourage the erasing

Erasing the old memories

Erasing the faulty falls

Falls to withdraw

Falls to befall

Befall is a tragic story

Befall is the old ensuring

Ensuring omnibus

Ensuring obvious

Obvious choice you make

Obvious facts you have

Have a kick-off

Have a buckle

Buckle up the gears

Buckle up the foot

Foot to move

Foot to rhythm

Rhythm of flowing

Rhythm of free

Free the souls

Free the willow

Willow to hang

Willow to garland

Garland of victory

Garland of pencils

Pencils to write

Pencils to dance

Dance

Write.

My heartiest gratitude to Polllardii
Because of her, I got to know about this amazing poetry form, "Blitz poetry." Now, coming to the point — what's a blitz poem? I'm giving a brief explanation, although if you want; you can check it out under the website shadow poetry.

. . .

The Blitz Poem, a poetry form created by Robert Keim.

This form of poetry is a stream of short phrases and images with repetition and rapid flow.

Begin with one short phrase, it can be a cliché. Begin the next line with another phrase that begins with the same first word as line 1. The first 48 lines should be short, but at least two words.

The third and fourth lines are phrases that begin with the last word of the 2nd phrase, the 5th and 6th lines begin with the last word of the 4th line, and so on, continuing, with each subsequent pair beginning with the last word of the line above them, which establishes a pattern of repetition.

Continue for 48 total lines with this pattern, And then the last two lines repeat the last word of line 48, then the last word of line 47.

The title must be only three words, with some sort of preposition or conjunction joining the first word from the third line to the first word from the 47th line, in that order.

There should be no punctuation. When reading a BLITZ, it is read very quickly, pausing only to breathe.

Sorry for dumping all info at once. )): I'd fun at doing this, hope you guys will enjoy as well. :))
