HAIKU + MICROFICTION SONGLINES - celebrating the micro in us all...
“Giddy grasshopper/ Take care...do not leap and crush/ These pearls of dewdrop” ― Issa(1763-1827) - Japanese Haiku
Haiku + Senryu
Haiku is a seasonal, reverent celebration of a subject (nature or people) trying to make a feeling.
Senryu tends to have a victim and may be humorous or irreverant trying to make a point.
- paraphrased from Michael Dylan Welch's Graceguts

tracing patterns and
following drummers' footprints
