Friday! (Syntuit)

by Larry Chamberlin   Apr 16, 2016


My inner weekend
just kicked sand into the face
of my work weakling.

[A syntuit is a 17 syllable three-line poem without rhyme generally distributed into 5-7-5 syllable lines. Where the senryu and haiku tend to be observational, the syntuit is reflective, expressive or abstract. There is no restriction as to subject and there is not a requirement for a link to nature or season.]

    Hello Larry

    Ah, the joys of having an inner, more leisurely self that can kick that less leisurely working self into touch with a "kick of sand in the face."

    This is excellent and creative,
    Ben
