bach, chord order
Some minimal haiku are constructed to hide the middle word so that three words conceals the middle word.  But this is what Bach did, create a unique order of chords which become the melody as well.   Just a note about music today, you can copyright melodies but you cannot   copyright chords.

You are what you eat. But if you do, try the plain yogurt, low fat. It has a lot less calories.

sudden denial, alzheimers
Written September 20, 1991 -  hello poetry allows me the freedom to let all of you see, think about, approve, disapprove , make comments and/or move on.
For me, Hello Poetry is like an "Open Stage,"  and I am able to be there 24/7.   Part of me is out there and that makes my day.

unseen enemy, myself or unseen, enemy myself
"hiddenemyself, " my original poem was written in the 90's.  "unseen" is so slightly different than "hidden," but there is a difference which I will think about tonight and tomorrow.  There is another question which changes the name, depending where you put the comma.

guns, unseen enemy
"Unseen" replaces hidden, but easily a synonym fitting my thought about guns.   This was originally published in Modern Haiku.

hidden energy, gymnastics
I have a very strong feeling about the word "hidden." One of my minimals using this word for the first time was "hiddenemyself." The second time I used it was in the combination with the word "chi" and led to "chiddenergy."   This word keeps reappearing in my mind, morphing into new minimals. I know that I will be using it again.
