God of Terza Rima


dante alighieri

God of Terza Rima verse
Lived once with the time
In Italian season of curse

Driven by romantic rhyme
Became poet via words’ sect
And pages enjoyed pen’s chimes

Came out as a poetic effect
Lived in exile and in pain
Father of the Italian dialect

Kept away from home in chain
Stripped much of his identity
Dante’s life was unfair and unfain
