Septolet
The Septolet is a poem consisting of seven lines containing fourteen words with a break in between
the two parts. Both parts deal with the same thought and create a picture.
Example #1:
Untitled
Lion
moving swiftly
across the plain,
most intent.
Antelope
grazing contently
on his meal.

Example #2:
Lion Woman
Prowling,
Lion woman
Seducer of men.
Trembling heart
Naked, heat
Rising from skin,
Ecstasy!
