A Blitz Poem, which is supposed to contain cliches and no punctuation!
It's what it is
It's a dog's life
Life goes on
Life is a bitch
Bitch about me
Bitch is me
Me and my shadow
Me and you make two
Two for tea
Two little boys
Boys toys
Boys and girls
Girls rule
Girl's night out
Out and about
Out of luck
Luck of the Irish
Luck is a lady
Lady and the Tramp
Lady in waiting
Waiting about
Waiting? Why are we?
We are the champions
We all need love
Love in a cold climate
Love makes the world go round
Round the houses
Round not square
Square eyes
Square peg in a round hole
Hole in the ground
Hole in one
One, two, three O'Leary
One day at a time
Time in a bottle
Time heals all
All is most of fall
All cannot be pleased
Pleased from thank yous
Pleased to meet you
You are half of me
You are everything
Everything coming up roses
Everything comes to an end
End is new beginnings
End sentences with full stops
Stops running away
Stops then gone
Gone.....
Away.....

JWrenover 9 years agoImaginative links of cliches and songs maintain pace and flow. Reminds me of old Billy Joel "fire" song.
Tsothaalmost 10 years agoI like this one, UYS. Streams of consciousness often look random, but here I find order underneath "chaos". There is a story being told, here, with each choice of next word. Perhaps unconsciously. Or perhaps it's me, creating a story. In any case, this poem is more than the sum of its words. Thumbs up.
Oldbear63about 10 years agoAnd this is about the best I have ever seen. I love the way you twisted some of the cliches and made it even that much more interesting.
buttersabout 10 years agotwisty, smart, and one of the most innovative and connecting (with me as a reader) pieces from you, Annie - this breaks the rules in the best possible way, proving you can do so much we're told we shouldn't but if handled deftly will still make a great piece!
the strange thing is, i heard this not in your voice but in David Tennant's Dr.Who english voice.
Maria2394about 10 years agois the best I can come up with. Annie, you have outdone yourself this time. It may not seem like poetry, but once I got started reading, it pulled me and pulled me until I couldn't read it fast enough. My favorite line is " all is most of Fall". You are an outstanding and wonderfully talented poet and writer. WOW! just wow. really good work, Lady:)
