EPANALEPSIS POETRY (NEW FORM)?

Posted byColleen M. ChesebroPosted inTanka Tuesday Poetry ChallengesTags:, ,

So, poetic friends… what do you think? Mick has created a new poetry form called epanalepsis. Stop by his blog and tell him what you think. ❤

Mick E Talbot Poems

EPANALEPSI

I think I might have created a new form of poetry? If I have then my gratitude goes out to Stuart Aken please click on his name and you’ll see where I am coming from, thank you, Stuart, too. Please do click on the title link above as all the definition/s can be used. To reiterate, please do click on the title, as the definition will become the rules, two of which can be found in my examples, the first blatantly obvious, the second in the first line of the fourth stanza. Feedback please, more on it being a new format, and of course critiques on the poems. Oh the name of the form, (if it is new), ‘Epanalepsis Poetry’. As is I can’t find any reference to this format, fingers crossed.

PERFECTED LOVE

together we will always be together
alone again never again alone
together now and forever together

  1. I love this! As I commented to Mick, this is terrific for many reasons, not the least of which is that repetition creates neural pathways in memory development. Seems a subtle yet persuasive way to achieve notoriety 🙂 So glad you posted this, Colleen 💜

    1. Thanks, Sis. I was really tickled to see creativity at its best. I love the alliteration of the words. ❤️

      1. Welcome, Sis. And talk about a faux pas … I meant ‘notability,’ not ‘notoriety.’ I had just read a piece on notoriety, and my mind didn’t switch tracks. Proof that repetition works 🙂 I’ve made this error before, after reading myriad articles on you know who 💜
