As far as I know, neither rdf nor n3 allows for literals as predicates. 
It simply has no meaning.

however,
echo ':a "hello" :c .' | cwm
returns with no error.

Further,
 echo ':a "hello" :c .' | cwm --n3 --rdf

returns the meaningless

<rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">

    <rdf:Description rdf:about="#a">
        <hello xmlns=""
            rdf:resource="#c"/>
    </rdf:Description>
</rdf:RDF>

a bug in the rdf serializer.

Further,
 echo '{:a :b :c} {:e :f :g} :c . ' | cwm

returns    {
        :a     :b :c .

        }     <.run-1101486963.472887p16600#_g4> :c .

Which is not throwing an error, merely exposing some of cwm's internals
