Ah this should be sweet
Not that I should care
For two lines to meet
Sweet candy upon my tongue
Couplets, couples, lines of two
For me or you or him and her, them and they, shall occur
Does this whole thing have to be two lines?
No.
Okay, good.
You did it again.
What?
Two lines my friend.
Truly two is fine enough to stop
The end.
This is for a dVerse prompt: This week, break the couple. Write a poem incorporating one of these couplets.
Choose one:
Broken Couplet — disrupt the expected relationship between the two lines.
Split Couplet — experiment with a longer first line and a shorter second line.
Hinged Couplet — let the second line turn, transform, or change the meaning of the first.
Rhyme and meter are optional—unless you want to challenge yourself. The only rule: Let the two lines change each other. Break the couple. See what happens
Hope you enjoy!😊
