haikaiTALKS: a saturday gathering! ONE-LINE haiku

haikaiTALKS: ONE-LINE HAIKU - a saturday gathering_under the banyan tree


host: Kala Ramesh


15th April 2023


I have a new request and a suggestion to make.

From now on - we take a one-line and try to understand it.

Write about them and internalise them. For your own poems: Only two one-line ku per week, per prompt, per poet.

First post: When you post, you'll make your first post as a comment on any one one-line, which is posted as an example.

You'll give your reason/s why you like it or why you don't like it. Whether you understand it or not. Second post: This will be your one-line ku.


Ok? Is it clear?


Sample poems: a horse being whipped semiconscious as one Michael McClintock Roadrunner Journal - 12.3


stepping on something tender like territory Eve Luckring Roadrunner Journal - 12.2



if only you could cry damaged masks Adrian Bouter Roadrunner Journal - 12.2


Have fun!
