Rating: Gen
For: GYWO Yahtzee - Aces
Notes: this is the second half of exercise #6 of The Ode Less Travelled by Stephen Fry which deals with dactylic pentameter.
Prompt:
proud like a ruinous king on a crumbling ash throne
covered in snow and abandoned, unorthodox tombstone
up on a perch the old church can remember the first war
mountains recall all the pillage and pall of the old lore
buried on high, the intolerant graves in the hoarfrost
married to sky, disregarding the staves and the yore lost
harried by naught that’s been wrought, these old knaves in the triptych
serried, forgotten and rotten and laved in the cryptic
