Challenge
Write A Sestina
A highly structured archaic poem with repeating end-words and confuzzlingly puzzlesome rules. The challenge everyone's been waiting for! ... right? ...........Here are the rules on how to write a sestina (too many to copy) from the Academy of American Poets:

My Feeble Attempt At This Challenge
So Ses Tina
And so the story goes fast
Fast as in the mental creativity
Creativity designed to be unwittingly endless
Endless points, fire, heated degrees
Degrees of intertwining levels, haunting, boastful;
Boastful where the world finds simple attempts
Eventually creating authors.
