The poem is in Haiku format.

The Sith artifact is a round, smooth, circular bracelet made up of precious metal that once worn around the wrist, infuses the wearer with a boost in strength and speed. Most times this is just enough to give the wearer an edge in combat to finish an opponent.

The cost though is great to both a force user and non-force user. After a short time, small sharp spikes penetrate the wrist, draw blood and drains the wearer's stamina and life. Unfortunately due to the spikes, the wearer cannot easily remove the bracelet without damaging their wrist severely. A force user with more control can last longer than the non force user.

Round, smooth, circular
Made up of precious metal
Fits around your wrist

Hiding a secret
Within the walls of metal
Several sharp spikes

They draw crimson blood
Infusing great strength and speed
But it comes with cost

Your life ebbs away
Your stamina fading fast
Till the force claims you
