A Sedoka Poem
A chapter in the book Commentary and Philosophy
Decadent Splendor
by Treischel
|
Incredible architecture, advertising, fountains, pools,sculptures, it's all there to marvel at, inside and out. It's all a lure.
This poem is a Sedoka.
The Sedoka format is one of the Americanized forms that plays off the Japanese poetic models based on 5 and 7 syllable counts, but without all the esoteric requirements found in the Japanese model. A Sedoka poem has two stanzas of 5-7-7 unrhymed lines dealing with same subject, but from a different aspect in each stanza. This format is intended to be descriptive, creating a complete picture.
