The nonet form has nine lines, and each line has a descending (or ascending) number of syllables from 9 to 1 or 1 to 9. I combined them into an hourglass nonet. The form is often credited to Sol Magazine in the 1990s.
Structured poetry, especially with a visual element, is always so delightful to me. The hourglass adds such a powerful image to this already powerful poem!

Going in both directions, well done Amrita
