Microsoft Bing: DALL-E 2

The Octelle, created by Emily Romano, relies on the repetition of the first two lines as the final two lines of the poem. It consists of eight lines (an octet) that employ personification and symbolism. The syllable count is: 8-8-7-7-7-7-8-8. The rhyme scheme: AA bb cc AA.

The event horizon of past melts with the extant in contrast. Scenes recalled in vivid hues meandering in mind’s mews; significance rearranged and the sequences now changed. The event horizon of past melts with the extant in contrast.
