Poetry Form β BLITZ 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 clichΓ©. 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.

Actually… My improvised break dance alleviates a broken heart.
I offered to pay for a third of my cup of coffee in improvised jazz dance the other day and Melbourne hipsters for all their colorful ink just can’t seem to smile. Maybe when I don’t buy coffee for homeless souls I might get my own Wiley E Coyote tattoo one day.
In the meantime I just have to staple my passport to my forehead and go walking around the airport every few months.
No sleep til the bloody cat stops dancing
Really beautifully penned Richa π
