Part IV: "To The Better Letter Post Scriptum"
Iambic pentameter is not enforcible but there should be a rhythmic flow.
Rhyme Scheme: ababcc
L-eft/5 syllables of themes con; 5 syllables on pro. This is an inter-reversal line that'll exchange with the bottom where R indicates reversal complete, with that said, the 5th syllable in the reversal, will become the end syllable thus claiming ownership of the couplet's rhyming "c."
E-xemplification; on the pro half of your theme, metaphorically or not--your call.
T-roubles; on the con of your theme, metaphorically or not--your call.
T-emptation; an expounding of terms, same as the above line.
E-xcellence; an expounding of terms, same as the above line.
R-ight/A line for a simple reversal with pro on the right.
L-Speed misjudged its breaks; odds knew--widow's mite.-a
E-Live yond your means, who are your family.-b
T-A hard worker, big spender, works in spite,-a
T-Jones styles for their smiles save one--their envy.b
E-Live simple, live smart unlike ducks and drakes,-c
R-odds knew--widow's mite; speed misjudged its breaks.-c
