these two verse “epistle” from Draco and his black widow were written for the trimeric prompt posted on #Dverse poetry pub this evening . https://dversepoets.com/2021/06/17/poetry-form-trimeric/ thanks for the suggestion of this form Grace,

Dearest Draco,
The suicide pact we swore,
To get us here into,
Out deaths eternal darkness,
Enhancing my forever love for you.
To get us here into,
Blood lust and unholy passions,
Feeding of humanities fears.
Our deaths eternal darkness,
Smothers our son’s death,
Leaving only, another lost generation.
Enhancing my forever love for you.
My suicide pact to join you,
Had to be written in your blood.
Eternally your black widow.
Dearest Widow of mine,
The suicide pact we swore,
To keep our exquisite devotion alive,
Even on the blackest night,
Enhancing my eternal love for you.
To keep our exquisite devotion alive,
Blood lust and unholy passions,
Had to be undertaken.
Even on the darkest night
Our family’s next gen had to die,
To forever strengthen our human family.
Enhancing my eternal love for you
Was worth perishing for,
So, our love could live forever more.
Forever yours Draco

R,
What a dark swirl of emotion, the trimeric’s repetition working brilliantly in revealing the cycle of raw emotions at work in this relationship. Acutely penned.
pax,

I kind of got lost in the darkness. Is this a double trimeric, with all the stanzas combined? As a poem, it’s very dark and intriguing, but your format remains complex and amorphous. Smile.

Yes. A double trimeric from two people written as letters to each other. If I smile in the darkness who knows what will see me!

I see now – there are two trimerics in this poem, in the format of the letters to each other. The saga of eternal love continues. Thanks for joining in.

Such darkness swirling around each verse! This is fascinating and indeed complex with visceral topics of love, perhaps obsession, and death. I enjoyed reading this piece, I think this is one of your best I’ve seen! ❤️

I love the way you continue the saga of the dark widow and Draco, it always makes me think of other literature, and with the suicide pact, I got to think of the young Werther…
