Compare

Compare and Contrast is the theme challenge of the week at One Deep Breath

a hay(na)ku

platitudes
whitewashed words
picket senses, locked

and Fibonacci sequence (1/1/2/3/5/8)

rain

on

ridges

blackberry
alveolar ridge

winter forgot these sensations

and a short poem,

classes

concentration: first sonnets
tongue tips stuck out.

I watch iambs being led
to slaughter.

    Really like that hay(na)ku. I’ve seen that form only a couple of times before and this time went “googling.” Have you ever tried it in link form? Phew, intriguing.

    The images in the second poem are delightful.

    And the pun in that last gave me quite a chuckle.

    Nice work!

    ‘picket senses, locked’ was my favourite line.

    Your sense of humor is superb. I’m really fond of fibonaccis but the haynaku could be a new fave. These three forms are wonderful – the perfect word on each line. http://firsttumblewords.blogspot.com
