WHOA ANOTHER FIXED FORM PIECE? Crazy talk. This is an alliterisen, base syllables 11.
I'm doing a fixed form challenge this month, so expect more posts! I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I enjoyed writing them, internet. I'm finding the challenge of fixed form to my taste :)
"Carbon Winter Heart"
I welcome winter with still, stalactite heart,
a new creature of carbonite, mirrored and mirthless.
I grow grizzled and old, December-dead,
diamond-dreaming, but graphite-grained and losing myself,
organic only by carbon content.
Lacking heart-valves, void: free of my changeling-child,
I am fully frozen, a newly caustic queen.
