They say that in a perfect world, at the age of fifty you would know half as much as you thought you did at seventeen. Epiphanist is a collection of creative and original work about fifty odd years of leaps of understanding.
Rules for a double dactyl are -
two four line stanzas,
last lines of each stanza must rhyme.
All lines are double dactyl rhythm
except for the last lines which are
dactyl plus one = four syllables.
First line is usually a jingle,
typically “higgledy piggledy”,
second line is the subject,
usually a name.
The second stanza must contain
a word of six syllables.
