Billy mentioned that the poetry practise forum (Poetry Practise) is suffering a nasty case of death. To resuscitate it, I'll be posting one form challenge a week -- though the frequency might change depending on how many participants we get. Please bear in mind these are challenges for yourself only, not competitions, and there will be no winners.
If you've never written using meter and form before, don't worry. I promise I know what I'm doing and will help out as much as you need it. I've never met a single freeverse writer who hasn't admitted (sometimes reluctantly) that the discipline required to learn form poetry has improved their freeverse.
Please stop by and try it. There will be no ridicule unless you specifically ask for it

It could be worse
