Dear Michael, Just as papagreen aka John said, a monoku is a haiku written as one line, and is the haikai version of a monostich. For more details check out Area 17 "Travelling the single line of haiku – one line haiku / monoku / monostich" by Alan Summers. They are not always easy as they appear, Madhuri's has more craft to it than meets the eye! :-) warm regards, Alan Summers Call of the Page Reply
