A chapter in the book 2024 Japanese Poetry
Billowing Clouds

feverish on my journey,
I stop to rest and gaze at billowing clouds of smoke over charred blackened fields— thinking of spring's green pastures

Gogyohka is a five-line free-style Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. Any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay but never rhyme. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe. === source = writers digest ===source=wikipedia
