Reckless

This is a Poem with a really...difficult rhyme scheme. Line 1: A|B|C|D / Line 2: E|F|G|H / Line 3: A|B|C|D / Line 4: E|F|G|H Yeah, all four words on line one have to rhyme to all four on line three, and same for lines 2 and 4. Its complicated!!

Reckless

Planned something you need,

few cues to assist,

and nothing to heed.

Through news, you desist.

Author's Note

You should try writing these....
I'm not usually an emo, sad, "Cry me a river" type- writer. I'm not usually a poet either. but hey, I figure "This'll be fun!"
It's Michael LaSalle's Repeating Quisset formula.
Comments are appreciated!

This is a great poem,
I call this form a "Reciprocating Quisset"
AA/BB/CC/DD
EE/FF/GG/HH
AA/BB/CC/DD
EE/FF/CC/CC

invented as a way to create a rolling motion in rhythm.
and use the division in rhyme to create a lyrical flow.
and you did a really great job, I think you captured the intention well,
I would try using a better word than detist. but i really like
where you went with this, thanks.

Well written.

Wow, great job! I really like
what you did with the
form as well... :) You
seem to have a knack for it,
perhaps you should have "fun"
more often! :)

Impressive work!!

You are too funny! I think you did a great job and asked my writer friend (who introduced this to me) to stop by and take a look! :)
