The creator of this form is unknown. The cyhydedd fer is an ancient form of seven couplets that was used long before the creation of the sonnet. The difference from normal sonnets lies in the fact that the cyhydedd fer has no meter requirement other than the rhyme every eight syllables. The pivot or volta can fall anywhere between line five and line eight with the final couplet being a resolution. The rhyme form is quiet simple being a.a.b.b.c.c.d.d.e.e.f.f.g.g.
"Lone Hipster"
Lone hipster, at computer screen,
Typing away with your hat of lime green
In the corner of a coffee shop.
The bottom of your skinny jeans crop,
To show your converse purple and white
Hair highlights dyed so bright
To clash with your natural hair.
Leaning back without a care,
Thick black glasses slightly askew,
Waiting for your nearing cue
To push them higher up your nose
With your middle finger so posed.
You may think you’re cool,
But maybe you are just a fool.
