Day 9 of the National Poetry Writing challenge was to write a 9 line poem. I chose to write following the French version which is the Lai. The Lai and Virelai follows 5 syllable couplets a, a, separated by a 2 syllable line b.
I got home late from work today and I just couldn’t give up on the challenge. Just not yet!So this is what I wrote. Explains how I feel on the 9th day of the challenge.
I am so confused,
My mind’s overused, Oh dear! My brain is fused, Can I be excused? Oh dear! My genius abused, I feel like I boozed, Oh dear!
