(Bridging-title-style poem)
In the social twilight
I do have a secret fright,
That people go underground,
With their communist background,
With their hugely, filthy wealth,
So to migrate here by stealth.

* Bridging-title-style poems
The most distinguishing characteristic of a Bridging Title is that it is read as the first line of the poem it
Many poems take as their title the first line of the poem itself. With a Bridging Title, however, the first line of the poem is not a repeat of the title, but instead acts as the first line of the poem.
Creating a Bridging Title may be simply a matter of placing the first line of your poem in the “title” position. But it may also be used to introduce a certain irony.
