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 28-November-2021 Triple Quietus

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.

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.

I wish everyone would "Begin, by asking ‘why’ Free like birds, in the sky" I really do!
