Tyburn
A Tyburn poem is made up of six line with a set syllable count. The count is 2/2/2/2/9/9. Lines one through four in a Tyburn poem must rhyme with one another. The final two lines must rhyme with themselves. The rhyme scheme is a/a/a/a/b/b. In lines, one through four of a Tyburn the words must be descriptive. In the final lines of a Tyburn poem, the words from the first four must be added. The fifth line would include the words from the first two while the remaining ones would be added to the last line. Only one, two-syllable words can be used for the first four lines.
Chunky,
clunky,
flunky,
junkie,
you're a chunky, clunky, drugged up tool,
flunky to a junkie, and a fool.
