Challenge
This is a form of writing called a triptych. It consists of 3 syllables per line, 3 lines per stanza and 6 or 9 stanzas per poem. Any subject. Have fun with it. *******If you are looking at this challenge at this point, please also look at some notes I published this morning under the title Triptych Challengers...it has some additional information I'd want you to be aware of. Thanks.*******
Burnt Sienna
I noticed
the pressure
in the air.
Words heavy
like concrete,
like my heart.
I noticedÂ
the shortness
of your hair.
Autumn's gone,
and so you'll
soon depart.
Please return
next autumn's
vendetta?
Oh, crisp leaves!
They were burnt
sienna...
