failedhaiku- a journal of English #senryu Volume 8, issue 90 is out and this beautiful issue brings #kyoka of poets from all over the world. #haikuhut #senryujournal
Grateful to Bryan Rickert, the issue’s expert Editor for the guidance, acceptance & publication of my 3 kyoka.
Kyoka are 5-lined like #tanka, but as Bryan says – “Think of kyoka being like senryu. Not a definite nature reference or kigo and it illuminates the human condition. They dont always need to be humorous and many people consider modern tanka to be kyoka.” #failedtanka
