The free verse poetry is criticized for the free flow of it without having many technical rules applied to them, apparently. However, composing effective free verse isn't simple either. Enjambment -- unexpected, unusual line-breaks --
makes all the difference. Writing about poetry in poetry is a pleasurable experience. The prompt for today's poem is 'enjambment'.
A pause to let you sync first
with the frequency of my line
to let the tide of poem splash its water on you
Loosening the knitted notions before
pauses to truncate the lines
to bond the graft with the juxtaposed line,
A heavy thought,
a rare concept,
a rebel angle
Broken
to let you sip them
within you
one by one
Long or short, the shape each line wants to birth itself,
where it wants to take a pause to think and sometimes stop
Introspecting, reflecting, questioning, answering
waves of verses,
Not to hit you
but to touch your innermost being
revealing the enchanting rhythm residing in common words
Enjambment: the song of broken lines

A pause to let you sync first
with the frequency of my line
to let the tide of poem splash its water on you
Loosening the knitted notions before
transiting from the first into another
for a guarded transmission of mind in the poem
for a guarded transmission of mind in the poem
pauses to truncate the lines
to bond the graft with the juxtaposed line,
resulting in afresh poetic flower
A heavy thought,
a rare concept,
a rebel angle
Broken
to let you sip them
within you
one by one
Long or short, the shape each line wants to birth itself,
where it wants to take a pause to think and sometimes stop
Introspecting, reflecting, questioning, answering
waves of verses,
Swiftly shifting tone
softer to deeper
As the poem flows
As the poem flows
Not to hit you
but to touch your innermost being
revealing the enchanting rhythm residing in common words
and the melody breathing in your lives
Enjambment: the song of broken lines
