I had to make my own form for my poetry class, so this one decreases in syllabic count from 10 to 1 and the last word juxtaposes the image in the first line. I could have done better, but I was rushed and not very inspired to write in the first place.
Some terrible word choice in here just so I could fill the syllabic count. This needs to be edited. Kudos for those who know the song I mention. Comments
dude, i love the form and the juxtaposition idea, and the images are great though it could do with some polishing up as you already acknowledge. i remember reading a poem here on dA where the syllabic count decreased with every line, and ive been going crazy trying to remember who wrote it (my old faves were apparently wiped out when the "collection" system was implemented), so this definitely has me satisfied until i can find out where that other poem went lol. (it wasn't yours by any chance was it?
-- For more nonsensical wisdom, click the butt. haha, nope. my "made-up form" isn't really that inventive, I was pressed for time when I wrote it so ya. But! I'm going to host a make your own form contest soon and we should see some interesting stuff there.
-- Hello Toilet `poisonedrose - thanks brett <£...ahhh brit love A friend of mine wrote something he called a 'nonnet', which was the same sort of idea, only it was 9 lines long and there wasn't the juxtaposition of the first & last lines. The best bit for me was 'blue lust', because I reckon in those two words you've pretty much summed up the whole thing ... in a good way
"I won't shiver in the cold
I won't let the shadows take their toll I won't cover my head in the dark And I won't forget you when we part Cooooollaaaaapse the light into Earth... Coooollaaaaaaapse the Light into Earth..." Good ole' Porcupine Tree! That poem is also incredible. It kinda feels right. What you were saying about poor word choice is nonsense, because it all works. I especially like the last three lines -- "When no human brick lies atop another, then we will be satisfied with your destruction." mostly "blinded my dull eyes" I just thought was lacking. I'm still looking at fixing that line.
