Stupid Simpleton Song--Dizain
Dancing to catchy grocery store beat.
The TV trolls boogey and shake as well.
Poolside nonsense, corniness is complete.
Smiles made of plastic and glue--life is swell!
Music for the masses--a loud death knell
with simpleton lyrics, beautiful girls
A gift for the swine, of freshly wrapped pearls.
Disgustingly entertaining and fun
The young sheep listen, dance, jump, dream, and whirl.
I murder the radio--it is done.
Rules:
The Dizain gets us back in the French form domain, which as regular readers know is a favorite of mine. This particular form was a favorite of 15th and 16th-century French poets, but it has also been employed in English by the likes of Philip Sidney and John Keats.
Here are the basic rules of the Dizain:
One 10-line stanza
10 syllables per line
Employs the following rhyme scheme: ababbccdcd
