Cadence

• Cadence, created by Ella Cunningham, is a verse form which appears to be exercises in rhythm and possibly to show the value of often overlooked parts of speech, articles and prepositions. It is similar to the Cameo found at Poetry Base.
  
  The Cadence is:
• a heptastich, a poem in 7 lines.
• syllabic, the Cadence written with 1-2-3-4-4-8-5 syllables per line.
• unrhymed, but end words should be strong, no articles or prepositions.
•

  Snared,
  narrow
  precipice,
  time running out.
  Only option,
  amputate trapped arm, flying solo.
  Fortitude, freedom.

My Example Poem

Dribble    (Cadence)

Froth

Bubbles

and rises

to top of glass,

then overflows

to prove the barkeep gave you yours,

Now you'll smell like brew.
