Author Notes
Monostich is a poem that is only one line.
The title often plays an important part in the poem since the poem itself is so short.
Some one line poems can be read as one unbroken line without forced pauses or pauses as with one-line haiku.
Monostich was created in Russia in 1894 and Modern Monostich in North America in the 1970s. American haiku masters, William Higginson demonstrated that haiku is similar to the monostich form. click here to read wikipedia = read here to read simply haiku, monostich samples
