The Sixku is a poetry form that I invented in 2019.
Sixku (pronounce 'sis-ku') are six-word, untitled poems based on haiku. Each piece must be inspired by and contain a photograph and include a reference (even implicit) to nature. For example: season, weather, month, time of the day, etc.
Complete sentences and punctuation are optional and the use of the past tense is allowed.
