Tetractys the Form

The tetractys  was devised by Ry Stebbings & the challenge with the tetractys form is that each line is required 'to stand on its own ' and yet it the poem is to express a complete thought,within the narrow compass of 20 syllables.
My example today  thereof is 

Eye
poems
displaying
a shapely form,
exempting audition from needless stress.
