ode
very formal poems written in iambic pentameter.
Traditional odes are written for a chorus (or at least,
the idea of a chorus), and are broken down into
three 10-line stanzas - one half of the chorus reads
the first set of lines, the other half reads the middle
set, and both together read the end, which ties
everything together.
