Time for a rhyme ...
Take the title of your poem and line by line based on the title create a piece where every two lines rhyme ... this is similar to couplets, but for this challenge it will be more like an agnostic. The first letter of each line must be in bold ... minimum title length is three words and they must read straight up and down ... your piece should have NO spaces between the lines and the last three lines MUST rhyme ... if this seems confusing, I will start it off and you can come look to see what I am explaining ... the winner will receive a Prime Time Rhyme award certificate ... make sure you tag me as: @Danceinsilence in the comment box and not in your actual write. Failure to to do this will prevent me from finding and reading your work sooner ... the winner will be chosen based of rhyme ability, style and ingenuity ... have fun with this!

How Should I Scream, God?

How should I scream?

On the planes of my dreams

Where I don't have to bit my tounge?

Should I scream like when I was young--

How I would whine when I'd fall off my bike

Outstrecthed on hot pavement that felt like spikes

Under my back; now that was a tremedous scream

Loud--yes, loud I must yell from the depths of my being

Delivering constant vulgar insults towards me

I can still hear their cheerful mourning of my sanitity

So weak and frail is my mental condition

Carrying such a sensitive frame derails my function

Reeping the swelled chambers of my heart

Eating the insecurities that have begun to break apart

And after all has been swept into a bag and thown away

Maybe I'll drive towards the coast and cry near a bay,

God, If you are out there, I hope you are listening:

Oh, the pain is too much and I can feel my soul fading

Do tell me, should I scream to myself or with everyone witnessing?
