I discovered a different one called Soledad. I love learning new and old styles of poetry writing, it opens one’s mind to different possibilities when writing. My humble attempt is included with Gorder’s, and Smith’s below.
Soledad: 1. Three 8-syllable lines 2. Written in tercets or triplets alone or in sequence. 3. Rhyme Scheme: a-x-a b-x-b etc. X= unrhymed. 4. Often has internal consonance or assonance. 5. Octosyllabic lines were typical in 12th Spanish poetry. The majority of the forms were couplets.

Eyes droop from lack of sleep last night,
late night write, hour hand clicks to twelve,
skip ropes forward, I wake at light.

Sacrifice Zones © 2012 Linda Varsell Smith
Exploited for profit and greed,
no rules to protect people, land
places disregarded we need.
***
Fuel industry and create blight.
Pollution a catastrophe.
Deplete and decay–people’s plight
***
Remove what stands in machine’s way
leaving dead land, mountain moonscape.
taking clean water, breathe away.
***
Defeated people struggle, shout
renew, recycle, choose for life,
dead, dying zones doing without.

Leaves flutter wildly in the wind
The colors burst upon my soul
scattered thoughts defiantly pinned
