An Octogram Poem, invented by long-time, much beloved former FanStory member, Sally Yocom, consists of:

2 stanzas of 8 lines each for a total length of 16 lines.
- The syllable counts line by line are; 8-4-8-4-8-8-8-4, 8-4-8-4-8-8-8-4.
- Each line must be written in Iambic Meter.
- The rhyme scheme for the first stanza is; a B a b c c b B
The rhyme scheme for the second stanza is; a b a b d d b B
(Capital "B" letters denote lines that must repeated EXACTLY THE SAME.)
Line two of the first stanza is repeated as line eight in that stanza,
and as line eight of the second stanza.
- No other lines should be repeated

Thanks very much for reading.
