In poetry
Can a phrase "point blank" be used in a different meaning in poetry? For example could one write a line like this in a poem "I'ts a point blank in time", literally meaning a blank point, a void in time? Can something like this be allowed?

There is a lot of poetic license, but if you used it, I would not understand what you meant. The meaning is "up close": He was shot at point blank range. org/wiki/Point Blank (disambiguation)
