Monoku Poem
a day when you look at yourself again, without the person you thought you were
Poet Lubna Yusuf
Monoku is a senryu/haiku with a slight enigmatic or ambiguous flavour, written in its earlier Japanese form as a one liner with 17 syllables or less. A caesura (pause) may be indicated by sense or speech rhythm and usually very little punctuation.The first letter of the line is generally never capitalized.
Monoku emerged as an independent style of poetry in the 1970s.
