A Pie Rhyme
oh no said sandra and ran out
the chapel the invited guests
the priest the family the girlfriends
look at the empty hearse in awe
In modern Russian poetry, there is such a genre as "stish'ok-pirozh'ok" (a pie rhyme). It's an iambic tetrameter quatrain, a feminine ending in the first and third lines, no rhymes, punctuation and capital letters. The content is frivolous or humorous. Black humor is welcome. Something like an English limerick, but simpler. Hoping, the soupers would like it)
