Thank you. I'm aware of the word, of “The SciFaiku Manifesto” (1995), and Tom Brinck. I appreciate his desire to write such #Poetry, but I also purposely don't use the word #Scifaiku. I have written very little #Haiku and plenty of what I call #Haikuesque. I decided on that name as those #Poems I write simply are neither haiku nor #Senryū, nor are they haiku with an added science-fictional colouring. I prefer using a name that's more explicit about the distinction.

#SFPoetry

I have the honour to have poems published in two separate publications by the same publisher (@sfpoetry) in the same month! My #scifaiku 'archaeologists' appears in Star*Line 46.3, while my #horror tanka 'Tasty' can be found in the #DwarfStars 2023 anthology. For the first (ed. by Jean-Paul Garnier), see: https://sfpoetry.com/starline.html
For the second (edited by David C. Kopaska-Merkel & Miguel O. Mitchell, PhD) see: https://sfpoetry.com/ds/23dwarfstars.html

Journey to...
winter morning, cough
wrap up in your hovel, walk
polar vortex, cry

At...
stand in line, feat burn
huh... they replaced the bread clerk
the price -of progress

Journey from...
chasms, us and them
walk on... police force --"neutral"
sticks paint Cardinals

Reflections...
I don't blame machines
they were made to replace us
should have watched, the rich

Hello all,

I have made an update to my site that includes a page where I will do my best to record prompts. https://sydneyearly.com/mastodon-prompts/

I have also added more tags that I have seen in the community to the tags in resources.

Finally, I have added a page on a new format that I have been working on that I hope some of you enjoy. https://sydneyearly.com/haiku-no-tabi/

So for October 10 and 11, I'm reading this #scifaiku by Deborah P. Kolodji:

"Pluto
adds moons to his harem
the ice in bed"

The other #poem I'm reading is Andrei Dorian Gheorghe's "The Essential Integral"
