A Blotz Poem

 

These poems are nonsense poems that are just for fun. You make up a creature and them describe him with the same letter the creature's species starts with.

 

Basically the formula is:

This is a <Creatures name>.
<Creature> live in <different places that start with same letter as creatures name>
<Creature> eat <different foods that start with the same letter as creatures name>
<Creature> likes <different things it might like that start with same letter as creatures name>
<Creature> are <describe how they are using words that start with the same letter as creatures name>
This <Creature> <describe stuff the creature might have done using words that start with same letter as creatures name>

Here's a Blotz poem I did back in 7th grade I think... We were doing poetry in English class. The teacher was teaching us different poem formats.

Babolkins

This is a Babolkin.

Babolkins live in beautiful, blue basket buildings.

Babolkins eat buns, butter, boiled beans and drink beer.

Babolkins like boys, bubbles, bubble gum, and books.

Babolkins are bilingual, always says "Bottoms up", and write blotz poems.

This Babolkin beat me black and blue, blew up my boots, and bit my baby brother.
