Emmett
an interesting form for sure
interesting and confused
form a quintain from the first line used
for those who like meter, impure
sure to keep me amused
----------
The Emmett has 3 rules:
1. the first line is 5 words
2. in order, each word from the first line becomes the first word of the subsequent lines, producing a quintain
3. the rhyme scheme is abbab, with no requirements concerning meter
