Being Inventive.

That post of mine – ‘A Poem’ – has me thinking. It seems I’ve invented a new poetic form. You know how the Japanese have the haiku? I’ve invented the hokumu – two lines of five and six syllables respectively, and the first word of each line has to rhyme.

Try it at home, but don’t forget that JJ invented it. JJ has now passed into legend.
