Easy is the Triolet

Easy is the Triolet,
    If you really learn to make it!
Once a neat refrain you get,
Easy is the Triolet.
As you see! I pay my debt
    With another rhyme, Deuce take it,
Easy is the Triolet,
    If you really learn to make it!

Notes

A Triolet is a stanza of eight lines with a rhyme scheme aaabaaabab; the first line is repeated as the fourth and seventh, and the second line as the eighth.
