Islanders! It's now time for the Islands' February Poet Laureate Contest!

Grab your pitchforks and halos for this old-school contest! This time around, the poems should be in terza rima, the poetic form first used in Dante Alighieri's classic stories of Heaven and Hell, Inferno and the rest of the Divine Comedy.

Terza rima has three rules:

Eleven syllables per line
Three lines per stanza
A rhyme scheme of ABA BCB CDC DED EFE, etc.

Other than that, the poem can be on any topic at all. Please feel free to message Paffnia if you need help on the form. More resources can be found here:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terza_rima
www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/terzarima.html
www.youngwriters.co.uk/types-terza-rima

Only citizens may submit, and there's a limit of one poem submission per citizen. Please PM all entries to Paffnia by 5:00 P.M. PST, Friday, February 9^th. Do NOT post your entries here or otherwise share them with anyone else but Paffnia. Good luck!
