This form is derived from the poem Rococo (and another I forget) by Algernon Charles Swinburne.
The form is: Stanzaic, consisting of Octaves
Syllabic, each quatrain consisting of 7/6/7/6 syllables
Metric: Iambic trimeter, with odd numbered lines being feminine rhymed.
Rhymed: ababcdcd or abababab.
My example
I Went Topless
Then boldness was discovered,
bikini’s came to be!
More skin became uncovered
by girls with spirits free.
Our stream was well secluded
and stood upon our farm,
and thus the girls concluded
we’d play there without harm.
And younger than all others
I had no breasts to hide
But Jane had tits like mother’s
and seemed most satisfied.
While Sally looked most slender
and tied her top on tight
the buxom would engender
in males a keen delight.
We frolicked flaunting boldness
where we were all alone,
enjoyed the water’s coldness
enjoyed what flesh was shown.
I saw more than intended –
that filled my mind with joy,
for of all who attended
I was the only boy.
