Aren't these fun to write? But you sure see the horror in everything you pen. This was sure depressing! But the key word is hate which causes wars which causes death which causes grieving which... oh well, you get the idea.

First off, you get an additional star simply because you understood the instructions! I did not realize poetry had many of the same training exercise as boot camp.
I've read several other blitzed items and yours - runs fast and runs hard - it is terrific. Because the words are beautifully conceived, the frantic run to the end is easy and smooth. Terrific luck with this one! Jean

This is an interesting poetic form. Interesting, though not my favorite.
I find there's no internal cohesion. I'm not speaking of your poem specifically. Yours is the third (possibly fourth) I've read. And, I feel that way about all of them.
Your selfie was cute, but that's just a question of knowing when to push the button.
Sorry, Dean

This Blitz poem adheres strictly to the instructions of the prompt. What I like best is that it is unique in the story it tells. It flows extremely well; grabs the readers attention from beginning to end. It is morbid and yet not gruesome. When I read it out loud it has a rhythmical cadence and allow me only to pause for a short second. This is certainly a good competitor in the contest. Best of luck!

Man this was good. I loved how you used the same letter beginning in a repetition that gave it a certain beat, a bang to your head and heart. Such a gift.

Well you mastered this challenge in my book!
Awesome flow and speed.
It was like sticking my head out the window of a speeding car...joining Thelma and Louise...lol
Would say the wind went through my hair, but a separate incident removed that possibility.
I scalp myself daily...lol
Terrific Poem!
