Clarity Pyramid

the power of words

Here are two examples that I recently penned:

 

LUST

Primal

Orgasmic

 

a scent and a sigh

throbbing pulsating need

explosions and implosions

 

“Pagan Virtue; a Christian Sin”

 

 

 

 

WAR

Power

Politics

 

sand, dust, and bullets

body bags and amputees

suicide snipers and snakes

 

“The Oil flows as the Pipeline Grows”

 

 

 

 

Here is another poem that I mixed styles : 2 Diamante and one Clarity Pyramid-

 

(Mr. Shadow)

 

 

Beginnings

 

new, young

 

exciting, opening, awakening

 

birth, creation, dawn, origin

 

closing, finishing, dying,

 

completion, oblivion

 

Endings

 

 

Evil

 

cold, dead

 

freezing, decaying, rotting

 

barren, desolate, empty, lonely

 

smothering, smoldering, suffocating

 

hot,  burning

 

Hell

 

 

 

               CLOOT               

Satan

Lucifer

 

Apostasy’s Child

A fall from heavens grace

Beauty lost, blackened, maimed, scarred

 

“FAITHLESS  ETERNAL WANDERER”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

Clarity Pyramid

The CLARITY PYRAMID form consists of two triplets and a single line, making a total of seven lines. This type of poetry is generally center-aligned when displayed.
The first triplet has 1, 2, and 3 syllables. The title of the poem is the one-syllable word of the first triplet, which is displayed in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS. This line is followed by a two-syllable line, and then a three-syllable line, both of which clarify the definition of the poem, or are synonyms for the title.

The second triplet has 5, 6, and 7 syllables. Its design is based around a life event contained within the triplet which helps give a poetic view or outlook on the first line (title).

The last line is 8 syllables, and is in quotations as this line contains a quote that defines the first line.

Reviews

[Astrid Hamilton]

As for the title, these words were powerful.
It's interesting to see the contrast of (the personal viewes here, beliefs?)
of life, death, and the thereafter.
Very poignant claim at certain inescapable, inevitable fate.

Satan
Lucifer
Apostasy's Child
A fall from heavens grace
Beauty lost, blackened, maimed, scarred
