Fragrance of Truth

Art by MDragonwillow



Breathe deep inside
Breathe the fragrance
Fragrance of love
Fragrance of soul
Soul searching
Soul is perfect
Perfect surroundings
Perfect harmony
Harmony of emotions
Harmony of music
Music is soothing
Music flows like water
Water of life
Water gives existence
Existence of our race
Existence of humanity
Humanity is receeding
Humanity survives
Survival of the fittest
Survival is essential
Essential aspirations
Essential dreams
Dream to flow
Dream to achieve
Achieve your goals
Achieve positive points
Points to ponder
Points to remember
Remember the mistakes
Remember to forgive
Forgive yourself
Forgive others
Others cannot be found
Others are your part
Part of your being
Part of your heart
Heart has its own reasons
Heart needs to be controlled
Control your mind
Control your self
Self love is needed
Self to be searched 
Search begins 
Search your true being
Being human is essential
Being one self is truth
Truth is inevitable
Truth is pride
Inevitable
Pride

Participating in OctPoWriMo 2020
today's Prompt was my favourite, a Blitz Poem - a poetry form created by Robert Keim.
It is a stream of short phrases and images with repetition and rapid flow. Which begins with one short phrase. The next line begins with the same first word as line 1. The first 48 lines are short, but at least two words.
The 3rd and 4th lines are phrases that begin with the last word of the 2nd phrase, the 5th and 6th lines begin with the last word of the 4th line, and so on, continuing, with each subsequent pair beginning with the last word of the line above them, which establishes a pattern of repetition.
This continues for 48 total lines, And then in the last two lines repeat the last word of line 48, then the last word of line 47.
The title is only 3 words, with some sort of preposition or conjunction joining the first word from the third line to the first word from the 47th line, in that order.
With no punctuation. When reading a BLITZ, it is read very quickly, pausing only to breathe.
