The Subconscious Recall
The Subconscious Recall is a poetic form which grew out of the performances of The Pigmentary Wickednesses. The rules of the form are applied by poets to produce individual poems which can be recited. The poem is divided into three distinct parts: a tercet, a quintain and a line. Every line of the poem has a terminal caesura.
- The first part is intended to describe the past. It has lines with five feet with a syllable weight pattern of long-long (quantitative spondaic pentameter).
- The second part is intended to develop the previous idea concerning current events. It has lines with five feet with a syllable weight pattern of long-short-short (quantitative dactylic pentameter).
- The third part is intended to offer a different perspective concerning the future. It has five feet with a syllable weight pattern of long-short-short (quantitative dactylic pentameter).
