Haiku Reader Dies (acrostic rensaku)

Headline news lead bleeds
Accidental haiku death
Investigated

Killed by tainted verse
Unidentified victim
Radioactive

Exotic poem
Attracts curious reader
Dripping vitriol

Extreme allergic
Reaction resulted in
Death of some poor schmuck

Industry spokes folks
Encourage illiterates
Stay away from words

Acrostic rensaku is a literary form of my own device, which when consumed may result in fatal episodes of insight. Haiku Reader Dies is the result of dangerous clinical experimentation which led to the demise of that poor schmuck. Don't tell anyone. I was never here.

Not beholden to
Established haiku concerns
Taking liberties

I am a proud disestablishmentarian at war with the monolithic forces of antidisestablishmentarianism.

UAD

Unidentified
Ariel phenomenon
Designed to catch eyes

Meta-Haiku (acrostic rensaku)

March to your own drum
Eliminate excess words
Try a tiny term

Art of simple verse
Honest writing warts and all
Affect emotion

Imagination
Kaleidoscopic world view
Unexpected truth

Twit Poet Days Gone

Twit Poet Days Gone

Taking time to act like Dad
With little haiku left to add
I thought I'd try my hand at rhyme
To fill a certain unused time

Perhaps acrostic eye enjoys
Opinionated writer noise
Escaping from these fingered keys
Talent  turns a term to please

Displayed on Hello Poetry
Among such well wove tapestry
Yearning to seem well rehearsed
Strangely outside insight versed

Granted this is not those works
Once the reader unlike jerks
Notices the time it took
Expressing thoughts found in no book

Acrostic poetry is a lot of fun to write, maybe no so much to read. Ah well, this is the nature of the beast.
This is also a type of meta-poetry akin to the rensaku among my writes. A work is considered Meta when mention is made of the work itself, the writer, the venue, the media of presentation, or the mechanics of writing. Twit Poet Days Gone involves at least three of these defining functions of meta. That this was composed entirely on a laptop keyboard, while online, with no pen or paper involved is, in my opinion, another facet of meta which should be explored and typified.

JAEY PEELE

Join me in meta
Artistic five seven five
Explicit content

Yearning for eyeballs
Poetic creation calls
Ears of readers ring

Erogenous zones
Licked sucked and blown until stiff
Ejaculations
