I actually created one for my first language. Not a sentence structure
so much as meter. I called it a bell meter. Each line had 21 syllables,
which went (- = unstressed ' = stressed): ' - - ' - - ' - - ' - ' -- ' -- '
-- ' . Over course, thus far, I haven't been good enough to produce anything
in this style... I really am no good at poetry.
