The Haiku Club Eastern Poetry Forms Dodoitsu
Description
Dodoitsu (都々逸 / quickly, city to city) is a form of Japanese poetry popular toward the end of the Edo Period (1603 - 1868). Imitating folk songs it tends to focus on love or work and is often humorous in tone. It consists of 26 syllables or less, commonly written in four lines of 7-7-7-5.
Example
Thursday afternoon is dead,
phones become silent and wait
until minutes before five
on Friday to ring
