Stornello
The Stornello is an Italian form
Eleven syllables inline clear and shorn
but the rhyming scheme is an aaa storm.
Give it a good go for the tercet largess
I’m sure you’ll like it, try take the silly test
“Stornello” you say, happiness fills your chest.
Tricube
The tricube
looks easy
here’s the thing
Three time three
line, verse, beat
all on show
Now you know
what to do
Tricube me!!
Thank you to everyone who took part in my #ArsPoetica #PoetsOfDoom challenge this week. Honestly they were all brilliant, taught me so much, and we even witnessed the launch of a new form 💚
Special thanks to top contributor @daveashleypoet.bsky.social who is also your host for the next week 🖤
My piece, a slightly revised version of one I wrote earlier in the year.
With much thanks to the Doom Team:

this is an old one but its about writing #FreeVerse
five, three and then five
syllables
like a small haiku.
Novem
A tercet plain
remains in sight
but to explain
Each line expounds
two mono sounds
a double! Zounds!
Absurd each line
rhyming word lies
really be heard.
Dodoitsu, a weird one
three lines of seven beat counts
give a sumptuous magic
for the last five beats
This one's for Claudia 😸

Five lines you say!
And not a tanka but kinda
with no limit, no bloody limit
of line length, or tricksy syllable
counts! Well, fuck me!
