I’ll lasso the cold moon

Author Notes
Ekphrastic = inspired by a picture or painting.
Modern Haiku The most common literary adaptation in English of haiku looks like one to four lines, no strict syllable count but brief, and often with a long/short or short/long asymmetry. These poems too utilize a caesura. Images need not be taken from nature, though they may be and often are. Seasonality is optional, though often featured. Here’s an example:
in the woodpile
the broken ax handle
haiku foundation modern haiku fuels
Thank you for reading and reviewing my poem.
