A Conspiracy {Triolet}

by xTheEcstasyOfSuicidex   Feb 4, 2007


A conspiracy of tall tale's and lies, a place we do not go, were no other confide
A new hidden secret left in the dust, full of a forbidden, tragic lust.
Alas! Something has moved inside, an emotion that had long ago died,
A conspiracy of tall tale's and lies, a place we do not go, were no other confide.
Tragic tales of forbidden things hide among all that is gone all that as been defied.
Alas, nothing is as it seems, such as trust, a hidden thing of lies and utter disgust.
A conspiracy of tall tale's and lies, a place we do not go, were no other confide
A new hidden secret left in the dust, full of a forbidden, tragic lust.

    Personally I do not care for Triolet's. I really didnt get this one either but considering I was hard on you on the ohter ones I'll spare you one. I thought the flow was really good. So I'll give ya a 5/5.

    An enjoyable read.. the lines were filled with great word choice.. but i think because the lines were so long some of the rhymes were missed.. from line to line.. however the rhymes within just one line were heard fine... also i think in this line

    "A conspiracy of tall tale's and lies, a place we do not go, were no other confide"

    that you meant

    "A conspiracy of tall tale's and lies, a place we do not go, WHERE no otherS confide"

    I thought it was very creative, and the first few lines had me hooked.
    I loved the wording, it really captured me.
    You did a wonderful job on this.
