Gogyohka Poem
A chapter in the book 2024 Japanese Poetry
* Collateral Damage *
by Gypsy Blue Rose
in honor of the innocent victims of war
wars come and go among world countries where soldiers and civilians die, by the hands of dictators and terrorists who disregard innocent lives
|
"collateral damage" is dehumanizing of innocent non-combatants killed or injured during combat, used to reduce the perceived culpability of military leadership in failing to prevent non-combatant casualties
Gogyohka is a five-line Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. You may use any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay. It usually doesn't rhyme, but natural not forced rhymes are okay. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe.
