A Glosa for You
I was doing a little cleaning up this weekend when I found that I had some old files that I had not read or even thought of for many years. One of those files was a glosa, a poetic form where each stanza ends with a line taken from another poem or song. I kept to some of the standard rule - eg. ten-line stanzas - and then strayed beautifully to tell a story.

Echoes of Euphony
The Tower of Silences stood as a dark monolith at the heart of Crescendo—a grim reminder of the Council's reign over the city's silenced melodies.
