Nonet
Back again for the A-Z Challenge!
The nonet poetic form is simple. It’s a 9-line poem that has 9 syllables in the first line, 8 syllables in the second line, 7 syllables in the third line, and continues to count down to one syllable in the final (ninth) line.
Breakfast
He enters, slow, cracking me open,
finding me ripe and ready inside:
soft, juicy, and sweet…wanton.
He takes me in lusty
mouthfuls — greedy, and
I drip down his
chin: slick, warm…
ready to
cum.

Love the poem, and actually like the form too, as it feels like it’s running up to a crescendo, like the climax in yours.
