shadow dancer (cherita 1-50) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

shadow dancer is the anniversary first edition of the second year, of the cherita

The cherita genre was created by ai li on the 22 June 1997. It consists of three stanzas of 1 - 2 - 3 lines and it tells a story.

This volume showcases 89 fine cherita from poets who hail from UK, USA, Singapore, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, Canada, Croatia, Trinidad and Tobago, Sri Lanka, Poland, Lithuania, Italy, West Africa, India, South Korea and China.

As this edition is an anniversary special, I have introduced a new feature at the end of the book showcasing twelve cherita by a poet fresh to the genre. His work is raw, uncompromising and authentic, and he has no fear of writing about this personal truths.

Eighteen cherita terbalik or inverted cherita are also featured within this edition. The interest in terbalik seems to be growing with more and more writers and poets experimenting with the 5 different formats inverted cherita can be written in.

The cherita terbalik [pronounced chair-rita tur-bar-lake] can be written with stanzas of [3-2-1], [2-1-3], [1–3–2],] 2–3–1] and [3–1–2] and with up to 3 partners. I hope you will all try this either solo or with your writing friends and submit your best efforts to me.

The book has been edited to be experienced two ways. It can be read as a storybook and as an anthology of individual poems.

The entire book also has one poem to a page to allow the author's words to breathe.

Here is an example from the book :-

what I regret

in this
long life

my love
and I
stopped dancing
