Wow... impeccable meter, fantastic verbage. . . this deserves a lot more attention than it got!

It's quite a unique metre. It's modified equal line terza rima, with the rhyming system aabaa. I know of no other work in history in which this metre is used.

See, not only is every line the exact same length in its original font, but it rhymes the same word twice in the first and third lines of each stanza and sets a new word in the end of the second line of the stanzas to set the new word to do the quad rhyme with. Each rhyme is a different word, and no quad rhyme repeats a word.

This means each stanza only makes about 30 words for the word count, so to get up to the Fimfiction minimum of 1,000 words, I had to make it around three pages at about 11 stanzas a page.

Thanks for the wonderful comment. This might be the only good comment I've gotten (Outside of my single comment I got when I uploaded Playdate here).
