Paradigmatic

Paradigmatic


Rough around the edges

Round rhymes for square wedges

Hidden away behind thick hedges


Produced as memory dredges

Double-crossed by disloyal pledges

Innocent of anything anyone alleges


Stays unfazed if hit with sledges

Hope it hangs from highest ledges

Like streamlined arrows given fledges ↣

Ça suffit — close up your ledgers!


Over-Rhyme:

Imagination rarely stretches

What a poor price knowing fetches

Even learning barely etches

Credible or discernible sketches.

Author's Note: If you enjoyed this piece then you may want to read its poetic successor: Anathematic.
