I used this in "Seeking Hyde," attributing it to "The Lost Cinquains" of Arpad Laszlo.
I think I'm really bad at poetry. At a minimum, I'm really inexperienced. Here's an attempt at a cinquain, which consists of 22 syllables, distributed in five lines, 2, 4, 6, 8, 2. All comments welcomed.

hope, truth, and steadfast love
stitch profane to sacred between
lost souls.
