First attempt at Korean Sijo, a form older than Haiku.
Three lines, 14-16 syllables each line, break (approximately) in the middle, total of 44-46 total syllables in the Sijo.
A mouse tries to fool the cat, by running around its paws. Escape is nigh impossible, so why not take a chance? It won't know what will happen, unless it is a risk taker.
Well done, Karla. And thank you for the introduction to an appealing verse form. I like the subject matter, seeming to fit the style somehow. And, I dunno... makes me giddy just watching the visual, so reckon the mouse has only to keep runnin and the cat will keel over in a dead faint!! :)) Love it, TY Kate xx
Interesting form of poetry, and I LOVE the animated graphic; too funny! LOL Much wisdom in succinct verse! Very well done; you've upped the bar on your talent yet again! BRAVA!
