Doublethink belief, boon or bane
Environ conditions 
Know that map is not the terrain
Narrowness imprisons

Here, now ego decry
Begin, by asking ‘why’
Free like birds, in the sky

Let’s give soul relief
Doublethink belief

~~~

Doublethink belief, we’re reborn
Halfway across the world
Memory erased, beliefs shorn
Yet bubbling joy, unfurled

The same sun shines on all
Hark the divine love call
Manifest as bliss squall

Ego ploy the thief
Doublethink belief

~~~

Doublethink belief, stop thought flow
Stillness ushers deep calm
Once heart mellow, we feel soul glow
God’s touch the healing balm

Each form, Holy Spirit
Judge not fault or merit
Walk path of truth with grit

Let’s turn a new leaf
Doublethink belief

Very nicely done, US, you write these so easily:) a simple doubt - if the title is doublethink belief, is it necessary to start the poem with the same phrase (in case of quietus)?

For Quietus form, it is. Title is the refrain taken from the first word or words of the first line, which is also the last line of the poem. However, for the contest underway, all forms are acceptable.

Very well written! Not sure I can do this form. I shall try this in my next life!

Hahaha! It is a breeze for you, Krish, I’m sure! For the contest though, you can use any form

I enjoyed another sample for your contest here. Sure hope I can figure this one out for myself!!

Andrea, you can use any form for the contest, it need not be Quietus. I’ve written a sample in Quatrain too. The idea is to encourage all to separate the wheat from the chaff for God search.
