POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Kumarmani Mahakul demonstrated a Haynaku, a type of poetry I did not know about. In a traditional Haynaku there are three lines. In the 1st line there is one word, there are two words in the 2nd line, and three words in the 3rd line. There is no restrictions on syllables or stresses or rhymes. So here's my first attempt.

Bullies are generally mean with a scowly face. They are altogether nasty! Your first attempt at Haynaku is indeed a great success. I haven't attempted it so far. In fact only recently I got familiar with such a poetic form!

Thank you! I had fun with this style and I had fun with barking and growling at that certain bully

Yes! Thank goodness America has freedom of speech or I'd be put in his jail!

Again PH is not letting me post replies quickly- in fact. I have to spend 10 minutes trying to get it written down in box and then another 5 minutes getting my reply submitted. Please know I appreciate your comment and that it helps me see when and where I connect with reader. Thank you! !

Wow! In merely 6 words, you've summed up a real powerful bully. And you've done it in this ingenious style of poetry. And when I saw the title, I immediately thought of that fun song, which I've sung at karaoke. Great job, Susan.

Thank you, Richard! Had fun with that title and this style of poem. If I may presume, I would like you to read Residential Presidential Bully Bully- Mirror Image. I think I prefer the Ripple Mirror Haynaku- -it is even more demanding!

Short for sure! ! ! Hopefully not sweet! ! ! ! I hope you try the Ripple Mirror Haynaku- I think you've got the quickness of mind to handle it- I had to struggle with it! Thank you for reading my stuff, Geetha! ! ! You should get a medal of honor for doing so! ! ! !
