		However, as the pantoum spread, and Western writers altered and adapted the form, the importance of rhyming and brevity diminished.

		The pantoum was originally a 15th century Malayan form, brought to the West by Victor Hugo in 1829, taken up in England in the late 19th century.
		A challenging form to work so that it sounds natural, but when it does work it is hypnotic and musical in its effect.
		The pantoum's musical, hypnotic weaving is applicable to light, romantic themes; to lyrics about nature; or it can be used to make a strong theme more subtle and appealing.

	Pantoum
		Originally a Malayan form, the structure of a pantoum is that it is written in couplets, repeating lines in an interlocking pattern.
		Although due to this nature there is no length restriction to a pantoum, they are generally kept within a few verses, as any longer than this would put stress on the poet’s ingenuity and the readers' patience.
		It is more vital to have a strong opening line in a pantoum than with any other poetic form, as without this, the rest of the poem loses its meaning and sense.

	Tradition
		The tradition of the pantoum has a secret history that is hidden by colonialism: the pantoum is a Malayan form that was imported by the French colonizers, but in doing so, they eviscerated it of its true essence.
		The epigrammatic central aspect of the Malayan pantoum has been lost and replaced with the interlocked refrains which were done as well in the Malay form, but only in a small subset of what was possible within that tradition.
		In this course, I tell you, "Go write a pantoum" or "Go write a sonnet." But it doesn't happen that way in the so-called "real world" most of the time.

		When I wrote "Baby's Pantoum" I had been spending most of my time with my infant son in a small cabin in the mountains outside Boulder, Colorado.
