Fear

causing

heart pausing

palpitations,

as I keep on trying

to prevent bad complications.

Don’t want created any variations

coming back later and sticking me in the rear.

I’ll clear my mind of all expectations;

avoiding all confrontations,

so not to be pissing

my foundations.

I’m pulsing,

wishing

beer.

Diatelle


The Diatelle is a fun, syllable counting form like the etheree with a twist. The syllable structure of
the diatelle is as follows: 1/2/3/4/6/8/10/12/10/8/6/4/3/2/1, but unlike an ethere, has a set rhyme
pattern of a b b c b c c a c c b c b b a. This poetry form may be written on any subject matter and looks
best center aligned in a diamond shape.


The Diatelle form was created by Bradley Vrooman.
