so here is an idea
why not write haiku?
thank you, not today
it is not what I do
simple canons to follow
still too hard for me
free form flowing
no pattern needed
dumping thoughts
rules left unheeded
its how I roll...
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
I have not studied the haiku form. Is this it? Or is this simply the protest? Both have their raison d'etre.
ReplyDeleteThis was just an expression of my decision to not write one. I had asked for suggestions on a topic and had received several comments mentioning haiku.
