the way two
you
and I
the way two
swings twisted together
in the
playground
when
they finish
unraveling flop around
Publisher’s Note:
The poetic form “hay(na)ku,” a name coined by Vince Gotera and pronounced
“ai-na-ku,” was invented in 2003 by
poet Eileen Tabios, although
she initially called it “the Pinoy Haiku.” To learn more, see
Hay(na)ku at her website, which also includes numerous links
to additional resources.
