This is my response to Wordle Prompt #19 for June 5, 2014 on the Red Wolf Poems blog. A list of words gathered from works submitted for the prompt from the previous week:
- Barbara: docked, strip, used
- Rick: brush, painter, palette
- Misky: float, bricked, boat
- Stimmyabby: hallucinations, crook, soda
- Don: kill, edifice, dies
- Jules: waterways, surface, otter
- Irene: vision, art, foregrounding
- Hannah: coil, spirals, ropes
- Roslyn: roil, dissecting, truth
- Sabra: murky, sparkling, curve
- Bastet: Circe, wanton, wallow
My response is in the form of haiga and haibun. Two of the many Haiku and Related Forms in the field of poetry.
The words short night are a kigo (which means a season word or words) for summer.
- Haibun as I see it is prose or poetry (other than haiku) plus one or more haiku.
- Haiga as I see it is image which includes haiku as part of the image—image and haiku as one work.
