Blitz poem

Blitz poem

A Poem by Maglia Weaver Twill
"

50 lines, wordy couplets, going last word of 2nd line become 1st word of 3-4, last word of 4 become first word of 5-6, and so on

"
Touch the plum tree,
Touch your temple;
Temper the control,
Temple the dimple.
Dimples are cute.
Dimples grant,
Grant whispers,                             He didn’t know
Grant us peace.                    what it would do.
Peace stitches
Peace take one’s mind off things
Things listen
Things are good
Good glistens
Good is wood.
Wood distraction.
Wood take one’s mind off
Off alarm clock
Off devaluation
Devaluation devalues
Devaluation vanishes.
Vanishes awaken,
Vanishes quickly
Quickly shameless
Quickly deflect
Deflect light
Deflect misfortune
Misfortune unfortunate
Misfortune junction
Junction.  Flutter.
Junction for meeting.
Meeting Switzerland
Meeting a goose.
Goose is a mother.
Goose is not a moose.
Mosses live in Canada.
Moose are strange.
Strange is a matter.
Strange isn’t stupid.
Stupid is a range.
Stupid laziness.
Laziness happens
Laziness set on a course.
Course corn meal,
Course for a horse.
Horse races.
Horses loved.
Loved tobacconists.
Loved tables.
Tables taciturn
Tables hush up.
Up goes the blind.
Up and a away.
Away for a day,
Away away.
Away there’s a will
Away there’s heels.
Heels portrayed
Heels scuffling
Scuffling sound
Scuffle not muffle.
Muffs fine for wintertime
Muffs of Russia.

Delightful continuation, I enjoyed it reading again and again. And in the end it really chilled, as the winters has welcomed the chill here in Darjeeling.
It's awesome.

Wow! This is really interesting and clever!
How do you come up with such talented stuff? I had to read it 3 times to understand it.
Confusing but entertaining. I liked the description too.
Great job :)

this is definitely different from anything I have read.. it did make me scratch my head in a few places and giggle in others.. will make one suggestion though, maybe bigger size font, as it is, it is a little hard to read.. very entertaining, creative piece for sure.. :)
