Jump Rhyme
Thump a word on the vine,
then bump it on the next line.
As they jump, things start to align.
Don’t mean to dump, but well, okay, fine;
just like DeSantis beating Trump: divine.
----------
A Jump Rhyme is a monorhyme with 5 lines.
They have 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 syllables.
Then, the internal rhyme starts on word 1
and jumps to word 2 on the second line,
to word 3 on the third line, and so forth.
Line length is by syllables; internal rhyme by words.
Kinda fun!
