New poetry form ???
Pentesam~Any number of five line stanzas in iambic pentameter, rhyme pattern ababb. Example: (First one ever). Improperly Pok't
Woulds't poking come more noble in the dark Where not a prying eye is wont to see Or pok't in darkness might he miss the mark And leave thee with abrasions on thy knee Time spent, methinks, in practice is the key ·······  ······· Values are to integrity as spirit to spirituality ... the one is needed that the other is sustained ~ Sam
