Tag Archives: Hay{na)ku

Hay(na)kus are a curious little form I found at Poetic Asides.  It’s a variation of the haiku:  Three lines; one word, two words, three words.  No other rules.  My kind of form!  Also at Poets United, our poetry collective. Amy

As Seen On TV

Drug
It’s new!
Ask your doctor

Squandered

Money
is wasted
on the rich

Like a Mighty Stream

Justice
is ensured
only through action

Jesus, Gandhi, King

Peace
cannot flourish
without unconditional love

Mel Gibson’s Passion

Jesus
was not
an action figure

America

Hatred
is not
the new Normal
