Poetry Challenge Forum Blitz Collaboration
Blitz Collaboration9 Years AgoI recently discovered a form of poetry called Blitz poetry. My poems Fight For Revenge and Signs Against Life are examples. For this collaboration Each person will come up with 2 lines following the rules of the form. There are 50 lines to this poem. You may post as many times as you like since there are not very many people in this group, but be sure someone has posted after your lines before you post another set.
Here are the rules: Line 1 should be one short phrase or image (like “build a boat”) Line 2 should be another short phrase or image using the same first word as the first word in Line 1 (something like “build a house” )Lines 3 and 4 should be short phrases or images using the last word of Line 2 as their first words (so Line 3 might be “house for sale” and Line 4 might be “house for rent”) Lines 5 and 6 should be short phrases or images using the last word of Line 4 as their first words, and so on until you’ve made it through 48 lines Line 49 should be the last word of Line 48 Line 50 should be the last word of Line 47 I know this is a bit crazy, but I promise it's fun! Give it a whirl!!! Happy writing! My two lines: Yesterday is gone Yesterday has passed |
