Unrhymed iambic pentameter is a particular type of meter that can be used in a poem or other written work. The fact that it is unrhymed simply means that the words within and between each line do not have to rhyme, though some internal rhyming may occur and still keep the overall work from being in any particular rhyme scheme. Much like rhyming iambic pentameter, this meter consists of individual lines that are each made up of five “feet” indicated by the prefix “penta-” in the name. Unrhymed iambic pentameter uses the iambic system, which means that each foot is made up of two syllables, one unstressed and the other stressed.
