cold and bare-faced trees awoken by morning chill spread leaves over hills
American Sentence: Invented by Allen Ginsberg. – Poets Collective
An American haiku variation. 17 syllables written in a sentence. Any topic –
So, the qualities of such a sentence? Like most other good poetry it should be Imagistic, with that gap of meaning between the writer and the reader; ie: phenomenology. Some kind of juxtaposition helps create a tension.

Still have a few leaves… Had a young buck (just a small ‘rack’ – cross out back yard around 9a 🙂
Warm rain on an off this morning. Makes raking a chore – with heavy leaves.
