A Blue ~ Hidden or Blind Rhyme Submission
Photo Credit to Free Internet Download; (Tlaloc)
Notes:
Tlaloc is the Aztec God of Fertility, Rain, Lighting, and Thunder.
The challenge for week (1-10-2019): Compose as Blind (or Hidden) Rhyme. Details posted under; discussion's; tab at top of inside page.
No deadline.
Blind Rhyme or Hidden Rhyme, is an exercise verse, sometimes used in poetry workshops and classrooms in which the end-word of each line rhymes internally early within the next line. This practice appears to be a loose descendant from 4th century Celtic poet's use of aicill rhyme.
Hidden Rhyme, or Blind Rhyme is:
* suited to light verse. (anything goes!)
* structured at the discretion of the poet.
* best when L1 sets a rhythm and the following lines maintain the same cadence.
* composed with the end-word of each line rhymed internally in the following line.
* often but NOT always, written with the first line rhyming with the last line.
About;
Tlaloc, He Who Makes Things Sprout. Tlaloc is the god of rain, lightning and thunder. He is a fertility god, but also a wrathful deity. He is responsible for both floods and droughts.
Tlaloc is commonly depicted as a goggle-eyed blue being with jaguar fangs. Often he is presented wearing a net of clouds, a crown of heron feather and foam sandals. He carries rattles to make thunder.
