I don't know about this form, but I felt it amazing, both the lines are contrary to each other, you have done it brilliantly Mr. and I agree with Connie that the lines will make you special in her eyes as you are in my eyes as a poet.. Malik

Well, it is a form that I use inspired by Heraclitus theory of opposites my friend, Malik! As you know our brain functions with the opposites. One cannot understand good if doesn't have the conception of bad or cannot conceive hard if doesn't have the experience of soft and so on! Is a form that only myself seems to use here but I find very effective for in few words you can speak volumes!
