Exercise #123: Craft Posted 9/2/05
Try out a different style or genre. If you normally write romance, try a mystery. If your preference is science fiction, try a western. If you're one of our poets, try a different style of that. For instance, if you like free verse, you might try an Elfchen for this exercise:
From A.W.A.D. - “This kind of a poem contains eleven words and is called “Elfchen” in Germany, which means “little eleven” or “little elve.” It has to be written in this form:
First line: one word second line: two words third line: three words fourth line: four words fifth line: one word.”
