On a dark lonely night
I walked down the street
And continued to alight
Walking furiously
I light a cigarette
On a dark lonely night
Dogs barking by the side
Homeless people staring as I stride
I walked down the street
Blaming my luck
Avoiding the light
and continued to alight

Cascade, a form created by Udit Bhatia, is all about receptiveness, but in a smooth cascading way like a waterfall. 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.
