Sestina is a lovely word for a cruel poetic form that has broken many. But Mike Ennenbach and I are here to say it can be done and we have witnesses, thanks to @candacenola.bsky.social and Danielle Yvonne. substack.com/home/post/p-...

"Sijo?" asked Mike Ennenbach. I reached for the poetic equivalent of "it tastes like chicken": "like a haiku, but different, and not Japanese", except my sijo is not chicken. It has bees. Thanks to @candacenola.bsky.social and Danielle Yvonne for supporting Mike's and my sijos, which are not haikus.

Tetractys is an odd poetic form, favored by poets looking to work brief. I’m not saying that’s Mike Ennenbach and me, but we have sestinas on the horizon. Appreciation to @candacenola.bsky.social and Danielle Yvonne for keeping our project before your eyes. candacenola.substack.com/p/09042026-p...

Alone on a park bench with a cup of Mackinac Island Fudge ice cream (IYKYK), I felt bereft, not fit for writing or companionship. Making art drags you through time until the moments become easier to bear. Thanks to Mike Ennenbach, @danielleyvonne.bsky.social and @candacenola.bsky.social .
