Constrict

Depict

Restrict 

Inflict

Giddy-up pet: constrict, depict reins

Bondage rope to restrict, inflict pain

 

 

---------------------------------

Tyburn has

  • four rhyming lines of two syllables each
  • first four lines are also descriptive
  • two more lines of nine syllables each that also rhyme, but not necessarily with the first four lines
  • the first four lines are also contained in the last two lines in their entirety starting with the fifth syllable

You did it, and did it well, Jax.

Your first attempt worked well. Now I need to get those animal cruelty images out of my head.
Janet "Jax" B. Sep 8, 2012, 9:15pm UTC
Oh it wasn't animal cruelty......guess I didn't get the idea across.
Veronica Hosking Sep 9, 2012, 4:09pm UTC
It made me think of those animal abuse ads on TV.
Janet "Jax" B. Sep 16, 2012, 11:57pm UTC
sorry.

Yes Pam, it is about what you think it is about....

Went to the dark side, didn't you? I have a sudden urge to call you a naughty minx.
