BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARG.

What, slowly getting longer and longer?

My poem is constantly ABAB, 6868 in syllables. Is it a rhymming couplet if it has irregular syllables, like abbb, if a and b rhyme, and b and b rhyme?

I thought a rhyming couplet was:
I thought I saw a dog,
But in fact it was a frog,
I looked surprised at that,
It looked more like a cat,
What the feck Rachel is this about?
I think I'm going crazy...from drought.

That is AABBCC
I have no idea about yours... o_O

NO, because surely that's 676699, so it'd be ABAACC ?!

Rarr stupid syllables! OH wait, I see. No, I am pretty sure a rhyming couplet would be...

Today I ate a sort of fish,
Paletable it was so not,
I hope it's not served as a dish
Cold, warm, full of mammoths or very hot.

<-- POOR because I had to make it 8889 syllables per line, as the first verse is. SO you see. Would this be rhymming couplets, even though the 2nd and fourth line aren't the same length of syllables?

I didn't think syllables had anything to do with it... it just has to rhyme. And I thought mine were rhyming couplets... EH, I don't know..!

I always thought ABAB rhymming schemes = couplets, but...now I'm not sure. And I can't find out what ABAB must equal! I looked on your site and it was nae there!

RIGHT. Apparently, 4 line stanzas = Quatrains, and when the rhyme is ABAB it's called "Cross rhyme". In 8 line stanzas (Octet's) the same thing is called a "sicilian octave"...apparently...

Alas, it is an epic tragedy!

Don;t you say epic around me young one, or I'll nail you to the floor! I keep having dreams about her lately, wtf wtf?!

Have since discovered that sicilian octave = 10-11 syllables per line or something, so WHAT, I ask you *WHAT*, is the name for an ABABABAB rhymming scheme?!

I call it a Bernard scheme

Jess, it is your mission to discover the name for me! Pleaaaase!
