I need you, I like you, need you a lot
Let me take you, a bite, a sip, a life,
Borrow your blood, what have you got?
I need you, I like you, need you a lot.
Come on, just a kiss, just a thought …
You can’t even feel the slip of my knife.
I need you, I like you, need you a lot —
Let me take you, a bite, a sip, a life,
Borrow your blood, what have you got?
I need you, I like you, need you a lot.
Come on, just a kiss, just a thought …
You can’t even feel the slip of my knife.
I need you, I like you, need you a lot —
Let me take you, a bite, a sip, a life.

Today’s prompt: Day Twelve: you’re challenged you to write a triolet. These eight-line poems involve repeating lines and a tight rhyme scheme. The repetitions and rhymes can lend themselves to humorous poems, as well as to poems expressing dramatic or sorrowful moods.

THAT was one FAB triolet! Congratualtions.
Thank you Elizabeth. A tricky form to say the least which I procrastinated writing until after dinner …. I couldn’t find a way in and then in a rush it wrote itself.
