Tragedy

Besides every poet’s financial situation, the TRAGEDY is a literary style wherein everything goes wrong, preferably because the protagonist has some tragic flaw, such as pride or lust, that brings doom onto him and everyone around him (or her). Writing a tragedy is always a great way to cheer up.

There is neither a set rhyme scheme, nor a syllabic/stanzaic limit for the tragedy poetic style.

Example by Anwaar N. Hassan:

Cry of the Unborn

Wonder I, of my sin
Why unborn, why no kin.
Ask I, oh mother dear
Love me, not fear.

Cherish, beg I, not scorn
Alive am I, unborn
Live must I, in womb
Rest longer still, in tomb

“Mistake...yes”, you sigh
Ah! Hear you, pain feel I
Guilty am I? ... forgive
Punish, yes, but let live

Condemn, must you… why?
No sweet song, no lullaby?
Unwanted am I?…shun
Make haste then…be done

Sleep I, now, eternally
Wake will I, eventually?
Unknown, unheard…entombed in stone
I cry silent…I cry alone.
