POEM STARTER

Write a series of five Haiku set at the same event, exploring the five senses: sight, smell, sound, touch, taste.

A Haiku is a form of Japanese poetry, consisting of three lines that generally do not rhyme, with a syllabic structure of 5-7-5.

One Year Here

(Already a year? Damn, time flies. Thanks everyone.)


A purple icon

As night closes in I read

Many creative words


I can basically

Smell the chaos from satire

And death from horror


I don’t hear noises

Besides the clicking letters

And my own breathing


I brush the words here

Imagining meeting you

Your words have saved me


A taste of a place

The far away unknown home

Safe haven for all.

I’m not sure if it’s exactly a year, all I know is my earliest writing said it was made 52 weeks ago, so I’m close at least lol
