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. Reading further I found the RIPPLED MIRROR HAY(NA) KU- the "ripple" refers to how the reflection is not exact between the two tercets...

Thank you for putting this effort on your fav list. I have found a few examples of this ripple mirror haynaku and find I need practice! ! ! It can indeed be a beautiful form of poetry but a bit difficult in the 2nd half. Thank you, my friend, for your supportive remarks! And I do like perching there on your fav list!

Interesting. I have never tried it. The word effect certainly bears a lot of weight.

Oh, the ripple thing is how the creator of this poetic form saw a reflection in a mirror- -distorted a little, reversed, not exact. Kind of like a mirror image in a fun house. Thus I wrote the reflection of the first tercet as- -] voice hectoring nastiness/face scowling / meanness.... instead of merely copying exactly the first tercet-
