Bite the Bullet

Dust wraps him from his head to toe; What more? - He's to bite the bullet, For he's been busted by his foe; Dust wraps him from his head to toe And rusts his heart. Is that his flaw? He clacks like a little pullet. Dust wraps him from his head to toe; What more? - He's to bite the bullet. Chosen title: Bite the bullet Nov. 1, 2020 Pick-A-Title, Vol 24 - Triolet - Poetry Contest Contest Sponsor: Edward Ebeh

Great! The triolet is all about the refrain, you chose a great one! Love the imagery of dust wrapping him from head to toe.
