Situation Defused — a Poem

365 Days of Haiku 033: Situation Defused

Situation Defused

random alien appearance humans scramble contact situation defused aliens go home

This is a reverse sci(na)ku tanka, of the form:

3 words / 2 words / 1 word / 2 words / 3 words

This is for the ‘365 Days of Haiku Challenge’ created by Cynthia A. Morgan, and brought to my attention by Cassandra Armstrong. (I added tanka to my version of the challenge.)

Written by Roxanne Barbour.
