Early to the streets in orchestrated numbers

Ebony on white, a sombre tune plays

Economical use of the notes left over

Edge living in the beat of the night

Eeking out bare existences

Effect & cause - no difference to us

Egos & deros all on the one level

“Eh watch it! That’s me you’re treading on”

Either side of the tracks is uncertain

Ejected, the unwanted, the rubbish of mankind

EK Holden, abandoned, a home beneath the bridge

Electing not to go back, safety in numbers

“Embittered by life? me? Noooo!

Enamoured once, excited about being free

Eons ago that was, before all this”

Epoxy resin now plugging the holes in this city

Equality among the masses, a dream

Erases reality somewhat, those dreams

Escapism into hazey dark obscurity

Et tu, abandon me too?

Eulogy prophesying to a decaying dying world

  1. Absolutely incredible use of the key of e, and of all the different subkeys.  Ewok works for me.  

    Ewoks run amuck in dreams.


  2. Ewers of wine to Jellz' table!

  3. I'm not too struck on the length of the poem as that many 'E's is getting to me. Like the sentiment behind the poem though...well done...

    PS Is EK a place?

  4. mighty fine exercise! Well done. Each line could well be the beginning of a poem.

  5. Great work - an example of the mastery of word usage - to be able to formulate in this order - and still produce something that makes sense. To not only begin each line with an "e" - but to also - carry it further - with the 2nd letter alphabet. Well done - and my "hat's off" to you for your masterpiece ♥

  6. E's have it alright!  Well said with this challenge.  I do not think I will try.

  7. Ewers overflowing with sweet sounds

  8. Oh my god thats nice! It is a good concept (the 'E').

  9. Incredible tour de force. An interesting, funny and descriptive epom.

  10. Nice one Jellz. Can't believe your stuck with EW being Australian... "EWE". LOL!!
