GAME OF THRONES: TYRION’S QUATRAINS

Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister

     I found one of Peter Dinklage’s Tyrion Lannister monologue poems from the hit TV show “Game Of Thrones“.
     In this monologue poem, Tyrion is pleading his case of innocence after being accused of killing Joffrey. In the end he asks for a trial by combat.
     This monologue poem is written in 10 end-rhymed quatrains where the 1st and 3rd lines rhyme will the 2nd and 4th line do NOT rhyme at all.
     Another thing to take note of in this monologue poem, is that the Tyrion character loves to use the pronoun I, the Long “i” sound as you would hear in the word die and the short “i” sound that you hear in the word wish.
     If I were to perform this monologue poem, I might try an accent that emphasizes the long “i” and short “i” sounds and I would speak the lines that rhyme with more vehemence than the unrhymed lines.
     Check out the monologue poem BELOW, then LIKE, COMMENT ON and FOLLOW this blog.
