The Embraced Sparkle is a ribald poetic form concerning an abstract concept which grew out of the performances of The Tattooed Growls. The rules of the form are applied by poets to produce individual poems which can be recited. The poem is a single couplet. A form of parallelism is common throughout the poem, in that certain lines reverse grammatical structures. Each line has fourteen syllables. The first line is intended to express grief over the subject of the poem. The second line is intended to console the audience.
