Am studying the art of the Cinquain.-a variation of the Haiku.
It has 5 lines of 22 syllables:2,4,6,8,2.
I rejigged this piece already written as Haiku into the cinquain form.
Look at the drawing which inspired it by using the link above
and hopefully the poem will make sense!
Boxman 2
Hunkered
on splayed hands, his
stripped bone-white foetal-curve
earth bound, heaven bent, knot of bone
and prayer
OR
On a more familiar theme.
The sound
of wings hitting
Velux attic window
panes turns out to be the mundane-
the rain.

Love both the life drawing and the cinquain!
