NaPoWriMo x NaPoGenMo 2024 Day 23 : Cinquain Again

GeometricalCinquains

For the 23rd day of NaPoWriMo / NaPoGenMo, "GeometricalCinquains" coded in LiveCodeLab takes the forms of a Quintain(Any Poem with five lines) and a CInquain(A Poem that follows the form 2,4,6,8,2).

With additional sound from SonicPi & some edits
