WRITING BOOT CAMP - Day 6

Day 6

Alphabet Poem

Write a 26-line poem using all the letters of the alphabet. Have the first line start with the

letter “A,” the second “B,” the third “C,” etc.

Always, somehow, we are

Bending,

Careening –

Delicately

Enough –

For those who don’t understand…

Go then,

Happily

In the direction to which you dream,

Jive with those inner demons,

Keep your head above, just so,

Lingering that fine line between

Mortal and immortal.

None who seek

Overtly will come to with

Pleasure,

Quintessential in nature,

Realize this before all else.

Simply be,

Thoughtful and proud,

Undulate such heaving swells as to

Vibrate the fickle human shell

We are compelled to

eXist within.

You must haste to it or perish,

Zealot.
