This Alexandrine Form
This Alexandrine form, in hexametric beat,
Seems not so hard to write, yet something’s not complete.
It’s likely that I’ve missed; my typing makes me flinch.
I wonder if I should have written it in French?
These lines just give me pause, I hope in the right place.
And six just feels too short; I’m always out of space.
But mostly when I write, this doesn’t come to mind,
So I think that I’ll seek to write another kind.
