I certainly did not invent it. I believe it was a format under the broader category
DIMINISHED HEXAVERSE it’s cool that it perks interest , was a new experience for me . Even harder for me was format
EXTREME ALLITERATION. Had to be a certain length (??) and tell a story and EVERY WORD had to start w same letter.
I barely squeezed a finished poem seconds before the 25 minute(?) clock ran out. Check it out It’s titled PERHAPS , it on my poems list here.

Wow this was extraordinary. I swear poetry competitions are some of the heated competitions to ever exist, it\'s like everyone glares at each other with crazy eyes, lol. This is legendary, though, and the form is so intriguing...does the form have a name, or did you invent it?

Cool. It was the challenge to be able submit within the format and I was ok with my result. There’s another piece that required a certain meaty length w format called
EXTREME ALLITERATION that really twisted me up before I achieved staying within the rule. Every word had to start w the same Letter in a piece that moved w lines supporting a point of view. It’s titled PERHAPS. , within my list of poems should you be curious.

This is a good demonstration of why songs are instinctual and stories are more innate-the songs are so automatic and don’t require all the elements you mentioned-yet we complicate things-this piece was intellectually stimulating and thank you for that-

Alliteration has always been a favorite of mine. It plays a beautiful melody. P does seem to me to be a difficult letter to use to such an extent.

Hey man, I finally got to check this one out. Really enjoyed this poetic homage to the intersection between hip-hop and jazz and how we can appreciate the conversations and inspirations music has on one another.

Perhaps that “episode “ could birth style akin to Cecil Taylor , Pharoah Saunders and Ornette Coleman ? Maybe I could add another stanza of persuasion to sway ? Thanks for the read and response to my request and the bit of joy sparked only and uniquely by warm genius.

Sir B-Your poem is fire-I’ld gate crash that party with all those artists in attendance-until the part about jazz and hip hop being the same-which would cause us all an “episode!” Great craftsmanship though-

I love all kinds of music,
I like most kinds of sound,
but its the noises that words make and their corresponding meaning,
that makes the world go round and round ..
I am glad you pointed me in this direction my friend and now fully appreciate where you are coming from and all that jazz ..
I saw Dylan live earlier this year again and was reminded from my own personal experiences of his early performances that he being a poet and a connoisseur of words first introduced me to the principles of RAP but without me being able to pin a handle on what it then was .. Many thanks for the direction and I was most impressed with how you sounded in real life mode .. Cheers, Neville

like genuine demonstrations of kindness, that of being humble before our fellows costs nothing, does it .. the exact polar opposite of selfishness, greed and grandiosity .. yet even those may be forgiven in the presence of a severe mental disorder ... Maybe ..
