dVerse~Poets Pub Terza Rima...

  • dVerse~Poets Pub poetry challenge  This Thursday our challenge was a Terza Rima rhyming poetry in tercets...what the ???  Anyway, here's my attempt.  "The first and third lines of each subsequent stanza rhyme with the second line from the stanza before, so the rhyme scheme is aba bcb cdc and so on.  You need at least three stanzas to produce the musical effect of the chain-rhyming."
Revealed as a snake in the grass, 
Injecting your venom
Withdrawing was low class 
My personal prison
 Was this empty shell
Newly arisen
I have rebelled 
By floating away 
I've escaped your hell
