In 2019, I decided to challenge myself by inventing poetry forms. Since then, I have created (and co-created) six.

The Sixku came first.

Sixku are six-word, untitled poems based on the haiku, my favorite form. Each piece must be inspired by and contain a photograph.

Here are examples:

When I started writing poetry, I was mostly interested in free verse, with occasional rhyming schemes. As time went by, I settled for micro-poetry, with a focus on haiku. From there, I went on to create my own poetry form.

Now, I (very) occasionally pen a long piece. "There Is a Love" is the latest one. It wrote itself.

My poem for tonight: "Time Has Passed Us By", inspired by the song "To Build a Home" (Cinematic Orchestra featuring Patrick Watson)
