Threads of Deceit

THREADS OF DECEIT The puppet flexes with threads of gold, the hobby of his mistress to sew. His wife kneels on impenitent boards, parquet cold. The puppet flexes with threads of gold. Scurrying out, floorboards creaking and bold, he’s grown a larger nose, than the man she once knew. The puppet flexes with threads of gold The hobby of his mistress to sew 10/16/2017

I wrote a triolet, only a week ago or something (not on Soup, but my awesome writersforum), I don't think it's easy at all, although it seems simple enough with all the repetition. But actually you have very little space to maneuver, because only a few lines are 'free'. Beautiful triolet, Kim.

Thanks so much, Darren! So true. It is trying to find a clever refrain and then make the few lines you have pop. :)
