Writing Without Rhyme

I think I shall try to write. a poem I can enter, but first make sure to follow all the rules- which state it must have a non-rhyme format, containing twenty- two- lines and called verse The syllable count must be. seven-seven-ten-ten-ten, ending up with one hundred and ninety that are centred as advised by Emile. The theme can be what I choose it to be Well, here I go on verse three! however, I may need help. so, now it is time to wake up my muse. and ask her advice to select some words. Well here goes, “Hello muse, are you free now?” “I am, what is it you want?” “Some help with this new poem and already I am onto verse four.” “It seems then you are doing well yourself”. “I suppose so, I thought it might be hard”. “Well thanks, I will now finish. “So, you can write if you try.”
