I realized that I had done what I said sometimes made things confusing. I
inserted a poem into someone else's thread.
Jackie wrote of Adelaide Crapsey and her most famous cinquain. Sorry you
are going to have to go there to see it. As a painter, I enjoyed doing
studies of many works by artists such as Serat, sorry if I spelled it
wrong.
As a writer, I have found I enjoy this as well. I have written a final
chapter to a classic Twain novel,  I have responded to Naruda by carrying
on what I felt was neglected in one of his pieces, and I am working on a
study of Poe.
So when Jackie showed the cinquain, I dived right in. Below is my endeavor.
I tried to bring the same energy as was in hers, while restructuring the
order.

My Adelaide


The mouth

Is sewn shut Dear,

The frozen morn dost sleep

And frigid is death buried, deep

Silence.


I hope you enjoyed it, Eve
