The Brevette
The Brevette, created by Emily
Romano consists of a subject (noun),
verb, and object (noun), in this exact order. The verb should show an ongoing
action. This is done by spacing out the letters in the verb. There are only
three words in the poem, giving it the title Brevette.
snail
l
e a k s
slime
Each
of the three words may have any number of syllables, but it is desireable that
the poem have balance in the choice of these words. Unlike haiku, there are no
other rules to follow.
