When my mind is in mental

turmoil and there is nothing

from a bottle to aid me, I go

where peace has no perimeter.


Once by the Iambic pentameter

a metaphor and a simile were

binary, it was time for a Pause

because of the assonance before

the ****** of this rhyming Couplet.


Then I saw a Trope with Hyperbole

what a Personification of an Allegory

considering an Apostrophe between

their Blank Verse which though it

invoked Imagery there was a visible

Caesura which was a bit of a Chiasmus.


Next, I met a Lullaby from Limerick who

had a one night Stanza with Anagram

but decided to Refrain because he was

not familiar with the Rhythm system

and she had preference for Synecdoche.


Well. It is time for a Valediction from me

or Beat it as they say Figuratively speaking

besides Metonymy is not my style so I'll go

back via the Pastoral Prose where VillaNelle

is reciting a Soliloquy to a very Ode friend.
