A poem in Monotetra form (described following the poem)
I strive to write a verse sublime.
I'll make it work. I'll spend the time
to make it worth the reader's dime.
It has to rhyme. It has to rhyme.

If I should fail, I'll try once more
to satisfy this mental chore.
I'll open my creative door.
I know the score. I know the score.

Each stanza must be mono-rhymed.
Each last line must be “double-timed.”
'Cause that's the way this form's defined,
how it's designed. How it's designed.



Poetry form description:
> Composed of quatrains (4-line stanzas) in tetrameter (4 metrical feet)
         for a total of 8 syllables per line.
> Each quatrain consists of mono-rhymed lines (so each line in the 1st stanza
         has the same type of rhyme, as does each line in the 2nd stanza, etc.).
> The final line of each stanza repeats the same 4 syllables.
