Uppity-Monsterly
Miss Poet’s Hairenstein
Dubbed a monster, it's
her bad hair day,
Set it a-stumbling, and
Sublime atrocity
Idiosyncritity
Big hair, up, each way
Author notes
Line 1: The first line must be a double-dactyl hyphenated nonsense word, such as “Higgledy-piggledy,” "Pickety-pockety," or “Rockety-crockety.”
Line 2: The second line must be a double-dactyl name, such as “President Washington,” “Ralph Waldo Emerson,” or “Romeo Montague.”
Line 3: Dactyllic dimeter—six syllables with a distinct DA-dum-dum DA-dum-dum rhythm.
Line 4: One trochee and one iamb—four syllables with a distinct DA-dum-dum-DA rhythm. This line must rhyme perfectly with line 8.
Line 5: Dactyllic dimeter
Line 6: Dactyllic dimeter
Line 7: A SINGLE double-dactyl word, such as “uncomplimentary,” “heterosexual,” “anticlimactical,” “parthenogenesis,” or any other—the odder the better.
Line 8: Line 4: One trochee and one iamb. This line must rhyme perfectly with line 4.
