Hay(na)ku
In a traditional Hay(na)ku, there are: A tercet: 3 lines. A total of 6 words: 1 in the first line, 2 in the second line, and 3 in the third line. There is no restriction on syllables or stressed or rhymes.

Stop the whining
Stop the cajoling
Stop the gerrymandering
Stop your hate speech
Stop avoiding the law
Stop your voice.

The best revenge film: (IMO)
John Wick (2014)
wanted to leave his past as an assassin behind and grow old with his wife. She dies of cancer, she leaves behind a beagle puppy to help him grieve. Thugs break into his house, kill the puppy, his hope is snuffed out, and his rage takes over, setting a bullet-riddled path to avenge his lost friend in a world that wouldn’t leave him alone.

Prompt: Write a resolution poem
***
Years of contemplation
Hours of rumination
What now would be the good
Wondering if I should
Contact in a letter
Or a cel phone even better
Worries might be over and done
Regrets or answers, either one
Would be better than the mystery
What caused the troubled history
Deciding to take the chance
Try the shuffling guilty dance
Forgiveness might be found
Relationship would be re-bound.

Like most twelve year old boys they crave games, and want to open any doors that will lead to a chain of adventure. Even in the screen adapted versions, they steal away out of doors to explore and use their imaginations.
This day Joey talked the group into some cave hunting by the sea shore. On a ledge above one of the cave openings, they spied an old partially sunken ship not too far from shore.
Joey decided to swim out to it even though it looked too far a swim for him. Watching as he tore off his outer clothes, they started to plead for him not to go. He didn’t stop and started to free stroke quickly over the waves.
Joey reached the ship wreck and found nothing interesting. The dead bulk had been scavenged quite a few times already. Disappointed, but proud he had managed the swim, returned to his relieved companions. Further sea adventures were saved for the ever present safe video tablets at home.

Prompt: Write a rethink poem (rethink an earlier poem, a conversation, a belief etc.)
Deciding on a course of action
What you know at the time
Mistakes are made
Regrets are felt
Memories made
And that is life.
