Today’s poem is a tricube – a poem of three stanzas, each having three lines composed of three syllables. This one has a rhyme scheme of aaabbbccc. This one is inspired by an argument I witnessed, right when it hit the fan. The whole thing reminded me of a Jenga game where you watch quietly, knowing the pieces are going to fall and the whole thing will tip a little and crash…..
Tip of the Iceberg
what to do
they fooled you
such words flew
saw the lies
sheep disguise
passion dies
two will go
they both know
all-time low
