"Sijo?" asked Mike Ennenbach. I reached for the poetic equivalent of "it tastes like chicken": "like a haiku, but different, and not Japanese", except my sijo is not chicken. It has bees. Thanks to @candacenola.bsky.social and Danielle Yvonne for supporting Mike's and my sijos, which are not haikus.

Tetractys is an odd poetic form, favored by poets looking to work brief. I’m not saying that’s Mike Ennenbach and me, but we have sestinas on the horizon. Appreciation to @candacenola.bsky.social and Danielle Yvonne for keeping our project before your eyes. candacenola.substack.com/p/09042026-p...
