Gogyōshi

Gogyoshi (五行詩) is five-line poem with a title. Japanese poet, Tekkan Yosano published the original form (7-5 syllables) of gogyoshi in "Kashi no ha" in 1910.[1] But no poets wrote in that style for 90 years afterward. In the 2000s, some Japanese poets began writing modern gogyoshi (free syllables). "Go" means five and "gyo" means lines and "shi" means a poem. A poem written in five lines with a title is gogyoshi's defining characteristic and only rule. In comparing gogyoshi with other Japanese and world five-line poetic forms, it is the freest among such forms. Gogyoshi incorporates no syllabic or line-breaks and no rhyme scheme. But gogyoshi must have a title, though Tanka and Gogyohka have no title.[2] Mariko Sumikura used the English word gogyoshi for the first time in 2009.[3]
