A nonet is a nine-line poem. In the nonet form, each line contains specific, descending syllable counts. The first line contains nine syllables, the second line contains eight, and the third line contains seven, and so on.
This is mine:
they stole his memories and broke him,
his heart is heavy, his back bent.
thoughts twisted. a hurricane.
boyish smile, dimples … gone,
just a manic stare
and unkempt hair.
who’s to blame?
white coats?
fate?
What do you think it is about?
Now in groups you are going to write one yourselves. If you have problems counting syllables, you can use this page: https://www.howmanysyllables.com/
