Today's poetic form is the french Rondelet! It has 7 lines, lines 1,3,7 are refrains with 4 syllables each while the remaining lines are 8 syllables each. The rhyme pattern is AbAabbA!
See an example here:

we both murder with the same ease
death becomes me
hand in hand on a killing spree
inconsiderate of the pleas
with sweet oblivion, we tease
death becomes me.

I would've liked to elaborate more and lengthen the poem, but I also wanted to try out this form so I might redo the same concept in a different format next time.
