The Descriptive Cashew-apple is a solemn poetic form intended to express grief over the past, originating in The Worth Jobsheet. The rules of the form are applied by poets to produce individual poems which can be recited. The poem is three quatrains. Use of consonance and ambiguity is characteristic of the form. A form of parallelism is common throughout the poem, in that certain lines use the same placement of allusions. The second line of each quatrain must expand the idea of the first line.
