Structure
Line Down
This is a style I created that depends on one line of poetry to begin .
Basically this form uses each consecutive word on the first line of the poem to the first word of every other line in the poem to its end .
My Examples
Coming Out Of The Cave
There was a man who lived in a dark cave
Was he hiding or was he in his grave ?
A saint or a hermit or a caveman .
Man had knowledge . He was part of a plan .
Who left the cave ? We did , before our birth .
Lived and loved just for a while here on earth .
In time we evolved and now we are here .
A spiritual world is ever so near .
Dark to the night and lost with insight .
Cave creatures coming back into the light .
