Iron Poet XII, Batch VII.
Hello, and welcome to the seventh batch of poems written for round twelve of Iron Poet, the game where you give me three words and then go off to do something else while I slog through the roughly thirty thousand requests to give you a poem. Okay, not really, but sometimes it can feel that way. Please note that some rounds of Iron Poet can take a very long time to finish -- Iron Poet X ran from May 2006 to October 2007 -- so don't worry if your request seems to be taking a while; I get to them all eventually. It's just sometimes very eventual. I do poem round-ups every five to ten poems, to help keep people from missing anything.
Today's poems include:
* Eve for patoadam. (Rhymed free verse.)
* The Toy Soldier's Love Story for nightface. (Storybook rhyme.)
* Riddle of the Sphinx's Child for jadis17. (Rolling rhymed verse.)
* Song of Going for musique174. (Song form.)
* Polyamory for science_vixen. (Sonnet.)
* Moirae for olga_theodora. (Terza rima sonnet.)
* My Muse Gives Me for carmiel. (Free verse.)
* Linger for antigoneschase. (Blank verse.)
* Where the Foxes... for libraryraven. (Song form.)
* Masks for emberleo. (Sonnet.)
This round is CLOSED to new submissions. I'll be opening a new round...someday. When I finish the various other things I have pending, and my personal madness allows.
