Author notes
The form I have used here is called a reversed Etheree. An Etheree has 1 syllable in the first line, graduating down to 10 in the last line. Rules on the form can be found here: http://www.shadowpoetry.com/resources/wip/types.html

form poetry is hard to be creative with usually, as you are stuck to the rules that bind the form, but you have seemed to find not only the form, but also the voice to say what you wanted....nice job
