Good morning - today, I share the secrets of the great eastern poets. Here’s how to write fancy:
senryu, haiku:
first, centers on you; second,
hike you stay out of
to write a monoku, start with a haiku and put it on one line
a crystalline is a monoku
that rhymes when broken into two
it can’t be hard
to string together
a questionku, can it?
split
seventeen
syllables up like
this to get the oddquain
form
Or, as Bubba woud say, you’ll be:
sliding several
syllabic slippery slopes
slicker than snail snot
----------
tongue-in-cheek, of course - one could spend a life on these forms and not get them, but Bubba's still learning the ropes... :-)
a Crown Oddquain poem
Strange
wind blowing,
a cold harbinger
of darker things to follow
soon.
Much
closer now
than the day before,
much closer now than sages
know..
Yes,
bad fortune
is nigh upon us,
and yet we will not listen
still.
Do
we forget
every past lesson,
all those we lost in senseless
war?
Blast
us into
mass oblivion,
let nature grow the garden
new.
