NaPoWriMo 2015
Day 11: compose a poem in Sapphics. These are quatrains whose first three lines have eleven syllables, and the fourth, just five. There is also a very strict meter that alternates trochees (a two-syllable foot, with the first syllable stressed, and the second unstressed) and dactyls (a three-syllable foot, with the first syllable stressed and the remainder unstressed). The first three lines consist of two trochees, a dactyl, and two more trochees. The fourth line is a dactyl, followed by a trochee.
Day 11: (or Haiku Alternative or. of course. Visual Poetry)

against
all turnings
of the clock.
the darkness
spreading.
still one star
at a time.
between
the houses.
where I walk.
and linger.
yet one step.
out of rhyme.

she offers tea upon a starlit night these waves of amber
