I wrote the freeverse piece below,
in a 4-4-4-6-6 form.
The form felt really nice for my style,
and I may begin to use the form regularly...

I am more and more confident in my ability
to write flash or sudden pieces. I still prefer writing
prose to poetry, though often I find myself whiddling a
flash piece I wrote, down into a freeverse poem.
The process is often very natural and leads me there.
Still I prefer the flash or sudden form.
Flash and sudden are two names for basically
the same form. Usually prose, usually under 500 words.
The Chinese have been know to call it smoke-long.
Meaning you can read the piece in the time
it takes to smoke a cig.
