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.*******

Fail to Forget
You say to
me, "let it
go," but how?
If I am
hurt, I fail
to forget.
Memory
thunders through
my faint head.
The hurt thrives,
there is lack
of "Sorry."
Wishing I
could yell and
hurt you too.
But I can't
raise my voice
against you.
Tell others
I'm the bad
person here.
We both know
why you are
mad, because
I forgave
but failed
to forget.
