"Form of the week: Mirrored Refrain"  

Mirrored Refrain   is an invented stanzaic form that has 2 refrains that are flipped at the end of each stanza. This form was created by Stephanie Repayek. The elements of the Mirrored Refrain are:
         1. stanzaic, written in 3 or more quatrains.
         2. metered. Line length and pattern at the discretion of the poet.
         3. rhymed, rhyme scheme xaBA xbAB xaBA etc. (note the form is turned on only 3 rhymes.) x being unrhymed.
         4. composed with 2 refrains. L3 and L4 of the 1st quatrain become the refrain for subsequent stanzas. The refrains alternate position with each stanza.
