A "new form" invented by Jeff Green, based on the Kyrielle sonnet, like the Kyrielle sonnet it has 3 quatrains and a couplet all ending with the same line (or a similar developing line ending with the same rhyming word) also like the Kyrielle sonnet the first line is also the penultimate (second to last) line. Unlike the KS however the poem is decasyllabic (ideally iambic pentameter) and the rhyme scheme is a*bbA accA addA a*A.
a*, a and A lines all rhyme and a* and A lines are the repeating lines.
