Congrads, Dark Muse! And thanks Fifth for the positive feedback! Looking forward to the next contest!
Cograts to DM and thanks to 5th.
Congratulations, Dark Muse. What will the next form be?
I am going to choose a personal favorite of mine, that sounds fairly simple, but can prove more difficult than my first appear.
It is called a Septolet
The Septolet is a poem consisting of seven lines containing fourteen words with a break in between the two parts. Both parts deal with the same thought and create a picture.
Here is an example of my own:
Deadline: October 1stQuote:
Winter's blush
blooms my soul,
cold embrace
Eyes close,
drift away
forever
to sleep.
Death arrives
taking me out
in a carriage
Driving
me over
to the
graveyard...
