	Paper Bird see the paper bird/ soar quiescently through turbid expanses/ of form and change/ trying in vain to justify its existence/ by pretending at being e-1-1	RE: embers from within, black/ as daggers sealed in frozen blood/ birds' wings dare not tread/ upon horizon's sutured sunlight s-1-2	RE: RE: the flame vanishes, leaving smoke/ as birds would circle overhead/ all feeling leaves my sense of being/ my existence no longer my own w-1-3	shadow the shadow is there reminding me my stay is brief light the candle at both ends nw-1-4
Golden Spears, Part II Carried into the whispering breeze by wings of spring's sanguine flourish. I sit quietly alone; here my soul rests among earth and sky, waiting dormant for the hopeful tide of the flowers' green deluge into golden diamond seas, bathing trees in glistening azure waves. e-2-0	RE: The Gift of Lazarus I retain the energies of which we last spoke, locked away in the slumber of time and place; it is kneeled at the silence of your mirrored hearth that I search, the stairwell of your sunken salient rinsed of weather. e-2-1	The Gift of Lazarus I look into your eyes and as the leaves fall all hope ebbs with the wind why is it so cold? 2-2-1186	RE: The Gift of Lazarus two fires burn, the thirst neither of which one water may quench; dethroned within the chamber of the the many-curtained seat, the report of which has never called out from beyond fettered door mine was a ripple lost to an indiscriminate ocean. w-2-3	RE: shadow The lens that brings focus To the struggle also Concentrates the light And gives fire to a cold world n-2-4

MYKU History and Lore….

Before the internet, email, and computers, a busy college student began writing four line poems. This was all he had time to do. Haiku, with a twist, he called it Myku. Years later, he emailed a myku to a friend and received a response in the form of a myku! Back and forth it went, with others joining in along the way. These friends discovered that they communicated about things they would not normally discuss, so they kept on. Unfortunately, keeping track of notable mykus proved frustrating. They decided to build MYKU World, to allow them to write, read and store Myku conversations. Welcome to Myku World!
