Notes About The Poem
Written in Minichu format (subset of Rhyme)

The door opens

the door opened ajar
there stood a drunken man with an empty bottle
looking afar

pleading in eye
hobbled in, a shaky wobble
bit high

got Ales
mouthful gobble
bales

Mohan, your fantastic minishu poem captures an intriguing moment with vivid imagery and a sense of movement. The way the scene is set makes it easy for the reader to imagine the scenario. The poem effectively conveys a snapshot of this character's life.
