  • Each line of the poem ends with one of six end words, which alternate according to a set pattern.
  • “Forage Sestina” is a sestina by Marilyn Hacker.
  • Its end words are words, structure, wire, beam, wall, and room.
  • “Towards Autumn” is a sestina by Marilyn Hacker.
  • Its end words are daughter, friend, bread, mother, lover, and myself.
