Sestina


Juniper

Recommended Posts

I don't write poems but I thought it would be fun to try a sestina.

It will be nonsensical most likely so don't take it seriously :D

There was a man,

whose name was John.

they call him Cena.

He's a pro wrestler.

People made a meme.

They called it "Dank".

When the meme,

was seen by Cena,

He told the man,

"My name is John.

Is that dank?

I'm a wrestler."

And replied, the man,

"Master Cena,

You are a wrestler.

your name is John.

But are you dank?"

That's not up to meme.

So he went to the Meme.

and he found a man.

and that man was a wrestler.

and he said "Dank."

And so replied John,

With the word "Cena"

Eventually the man,

found John

Whose second name was Cena.

And he said to meme,

You need to be more Dank.

as a pro wrestler.

(I don't know all of the rules for these poems so I probably did something wrong. But look, I'm a poet now)

Yes, fabulous puns! :D

I have confirmed that this is not technically a Sestina though,

It should be 6 stanzas and the final word in each line should have a different position in each stanza.

So I'll call this.....

a PSEUDO SESTINA

(Wonderful use of sibilance there)
