Her other ones were pretty clean iambically, but this one doesn't seem to follow a pattern. I see a line with 9 syllables and one with 7. The rest have 8. :cry: So maybe we shouldn't worry about that part too much.
The first 4 lines of this poem are a repeat of the WHO poem. That poem has the same syllable issue with the first two lines, but the remaining lines all had 8 syllables. Maybe you're right about not getting hung up on 8 syllables, but it still seems to follow her pattern.

Then without some cribs or other clues from Cassie we don't stand a chance of finding the answer. The difficulty we are having with just this ONE last line shows us that. :)

Also we have the red and black image from Cassie which helps us see the first words are correct for each line, for all but the last line (which is too obscured).

hophead, you brought this up in the first place.
Have you been working on it, or looking at other things?
Both I guess. I kind of agree you need the "ate" sound to end it, and you lose the T in within.
But in my mind CANCER and ANSWER are the best rhymes either, so I think we can get away with FATE and ESCAPE. :?:
Cancer and answer are near perfect rhymes at they both end in the sound (anser) It's the SOUND rhyming cares about, not the letters being the same.

FYI, we don't have a final definitive really for WHERE yet.
Line 5 in that one is still under debate, right?
How many threads would a moderator thread if a moderator could thread threads?

What was the 'clue' for the one that all the lines are from? Is there one?

I just found this as a possibility for the last line....

Cassie now rips, I voiced hate

The letters all fit, but I'm sure thats not the final answer.

Maybe it will lead to something though.

well, assuming the last word rhymes with FATE

we need one of the following to be that last word:

ate
wait
sedate
await
create
rate
hate
date
predate
sate
crate

"a voice within serapis codes" would do two things:

1) go against the thought that the second to last line is "Eleven days until my fate"
and
2) suggest that the speaker in all these poems says something when the poems are all together.

So I couldnt find it anywhere, but did anyone find a new picture? The morse code on her YT profile changed, and my translator came up with FLLE8, but I couldn't find an image that seemed like it was related. If there is one, maybe it could help us figure it out?

Of if someone already has that image, could you link me? (It's not the black and red one, is it? I would feel pretty dumb... but it's been a long day for me!)

I came up with:

ELEVEN DAYS UNTIL MY FATE,
As voices coin I Whisper date

But it still sounds a little off, in terms of grammar.
