What poetic form are you?

I've done a lot of these "what fill in the blank are you" quizzes, but I thought this one was especially interesting, both for the amusement value of the questions, but also because the result I got was quite an accurate description of me.



I am the descort, and thwart, and long
for discordant, mordant chaos;
See the pretty dissolution,
See the ditty pattern briefly then
Dissolve away
Into a
Newer
Mode of messy disagreeable
(but me-able)
Affray, with lovely spite and hating,
Fights and hurting,
Never abating.
(Quite contrary me.)

    I turned out to be a limerick. I won't say if I'm a dirty limerick or not;)

    Best,

    I am, of course, none other than blank verse.
    I don't know where I'm going, yes, quite right;
    And when I get there (if I ever do)
    I might not recognise it. So? Your point?
    Why should I have a destination set?
    I'm relatively happy as I am,
    And wouldn't want to be forever aimed
    Towards some future path or special goal.
    It's not to do with laziness, as such.
    It's just that one the whole I'd rather not
    Be bothered - so I drift contentedly;
    An underrated way of life, I find.



    I don't think it is very accurate, but then again I've never really got poetry.
