MYKUWorld : The Poetry as Conversation Social Network

Perfection It's not what I set out to be. Perfection simply isn't me. Falling down and slipping up takes my time and fills my cup. se-0-0	RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Music unaccompanied, sung a capella, only a microphone to set them free, Nat King Cole; Tony Bennett & Billie Holiday. s-0-1	nearly perfection. electric emotions. sonic dreams, ersatz journeys on plastic streams s-0-2	RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Did you know where children sing you can grow a pair of wings? se-0-3	RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. hiss of a burning log. drumming heat pipes. my snoring dog. silent street fights. s-0-4
	RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Voices sung with synthesized vibes, vocals lost in these current times, once accompanied bands in high tones, musicians played with sheer talent shown. e-1-1	Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. electronic music tweaking our hearing with inhuman input blow through a bone pound on a rock with a log as chimpanzees dance somewhere between these following Brahms and Beatles we made other sounds 1-2-326	Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Trees laden with lush green leaves Japanese maples of red Hydrangeas bursting with colorful blooms While daisies nod their heads s-1-3	RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. More sounds I love, deep bellied laughter, music of childrens giggles & chatter, wind whistling through trees, chirping crickets & crashing waves of the seas. sw-1-4
RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Night Halo set aglow, surrounds the moonlight sphere, appearing still, far yet near full moon reflecting light so clear. s-2-0	RE: Perfection . This bathing world in perfect light, illuminates light rays of heavens bliss, streaming beams of white brightly, gently through full moons brilliant kiss. e-2-1	Perfection . The perfect moon arose last night and bathed the world in perfect light, turning grass and leaves to gray till chased by golden glare of day. n-2-2	RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Other sounds are often best, springtime birdsong, winter silence, hidden footsteps, soft night breath. nw-2-3	RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Splendor in the rustling trees, swiftness of a rushing breeze, buzzing of the bumble-bees, natures musical melodies. w-2-4
RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. torn leaves sailed to the ground, blanketing the earth below, swept in the winds shallow air, as the moon hung a bright white currents glare. s-3-0	perfect percussion How I loved those castanets, percussion in the palms, to aid the whisp'ring waves as they sing their seaside psalms. s-3-1	good sounds Bubbling down the hall and bursting through the door, bouncing off the windows - the children laugh. Encore! e-3-2	RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. In other sounds, I do love laughter, chimes of windsong, within a gentle breeze, quietness as night is brought to an ease. n-3-3	RE: RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Listen to the singing birds waking up the day reminding us lifes absurd if we forget to play s-3-4
RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. soft moonlight on a torn palm leaf makes it feel alright to be worn with grief e-4-0	RE: RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Soft clattering palms sway, fluttering in the breeze, flapping rhythms, calmly played with percussive ease. e-4-1	RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Leaves clapping and shredded , dancing wild on palms , turn stress deeply embedded, into a mild calm. ne-4-2	RE: RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. Soft wind swept island sounds, native rhythm to the tropic sea, let the dance abound, tempest waves rush out, setting stress free. w-4-3	RE: RE: RE: Perfection eludes us; sing anyway. I listen to what the spirits are saying when I hear the children playing, " Give us no more of your whatfor jive and find what makes you come alive!" nw-4-4

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!
