A Cascade poem for Potlatch Poetry

Fly in My Eye!

by damommy

 
While sitting on my porch today,
I turned my head to look away,
a nasty fly flew in my eye!
 
I don’t know what his purpose was,
I didn’t see him, heard no buzz
while sitting on my porch today.
 
Had he been drinking, in a spin,
and spiraled by the moment when
I turned my head to look away?
 
I used the hose and tried to get
my eye flushed out.  Now, I’m all wet.
A nasty fly flew in my eye!

The poem does not have any rhyme scheme; therefore, the layout is simple. Say the first verse has three lines. Line one of verse one becomes the last line of verse two. To follow in suit, the second line of verse one becomes the last line of verse three. The third line of verse one now becomes the last line of verse four, the last stanza of the poem. See the structure example below:

a/b/c, d/e/A, f/g/B, h/i/C
