Day twelve:
OOPS didn't get around to poeting this weekend so here I am catching up today!!
Poem 10
Emotion: Defiant
As a: Terzanelle - combining the villanelle with the terza rima? two poetic forms i've already tried and didn't hate? okay!
I didn't try to channel anything specific, just a defiant girl doing defiant things? I don't know. I did manage to stick with an even syllable count per line (still not bothering with iambic pentameter because why should I have to suffer) but it feels off to me. I like the terza rima as a form the best out of villanelle/terza rima/terzanelle
Poem 11
Emotion: Paranoia
As a: Virelai - heard of this one? me neither! but again, the random number generator told me to so here we are. It's a French poetic form!
I was just telling boy the other day that I have an irrational fear of windows at night time because you can't see out but people can see in and I'm afraid someone is watching me and I don't know. So that's what I wrote about! And it's.... fine? But it took an unexpected turn midway through (I think because I was running out of rhymes) and the narrator was reading a scary book at night in front of a window, so there's that.
Poem 12
Emotion: Resignation
As a: Endecha - a Spanish poetic form (just slowly making my way through Europe with poetic forms I guess)
Okay Jane the Virgin is STILLLL on my brain (no shame) so I'm channeling when Jane told one of them that she loved the other one (can't get more specific than that because ya'll need to watchhhh ittttt).
when you told me you loved him
and your love for me ran out
i threw my white flag up high
but the ending should be ours without a doubt
we'll always be family
and my love for you endures
but i won't fight your ending
because you made up your mind. it's him. you're sure.
