Poem
You cower at my rebel yell Envisioning hot flames of hell I’ll cast on you a wicked spell Before your plea for life I quell My rebel yell, hot flames of hell You tremble at my vicious might As you are plunged into the night Hope's angel now robbed from your sight With none to save you from your plight Into the night, robbed from your sight Your faithlessness my heart did break Your torture kept me nights awake And now revenge will make you quake I pierce your heart with jagged stake With jagged stake, my heart did break Eileen Manassian Ghali PS....I'm LONGING to come up with a new form that would bear my name! That would be the ultimate poetic ecstasy for me. I'm so impressed with the Swap Quatrain, Suzette Prime, Questionku, Constanza....Some by people that I actually KNOW. It's such a thrill! Anyway....here is something that I tried today. Tell me what you think. It is a poem made up of three stanzas. They are quatrain's but have a fifth line added. The fifth line of the first stanza takes the ending of the first two lines and combines them....the fifth line of the second stanza the endings of lines 2 and 3...and the last line of the last stanza has the ending lines of the fourth line, and the goes back to the ending of the first line. The object is to come full circle and reverse the events in the quatrain. In this case...I'm seeking revenge, and then the last line makes it plain that I'm the true sufferer. It must use a rhyme scheme. Please leave comments on what you think of this....It's pretty basic and elementary....but....It's MINE! ;)
