I Am "Three Dark Horses"
(A Haiku-Style Poem With Multiple Stanzas)
Imagination
is what you utilize to
choose your chosen names!
"Three Dark Horses" is
my main chosen name because
that is who I am!
-Paul Whiting
(a.k.a., Three Dark Horses)
"I am the darkness which brings the light!"
My Spiritual Notes:
The reason that I wrote this poem can be summed up with the following statement: A "chosen name" is like a nickname that you choose to give yourself, which represents how you feel about yourself. For example, a dark horse is "a candidate or competitor about whom little is known but who unexpectedly wins or succeeds," which is who I am!
And this poem was only published on my "Three Dark Horses" blog.
This poem was written in Portland, Oregon.
-Paulee

"Poetry is using the fewest words possible in order to describe all that is possible to describe." –Paul Whiting [June 1st, 2022]
My poems that are Haiku in their style—within which one stanza is composed of three lines, where each line has words containing five syllables, seven syllables and five syllables, respectively—are a lot more like Senryū poems in that the topic of these poems is typically about people, rather than the topic of these poems being about nature, as is usually the case in classic Haiku poems. And that is why I call these types of poems "Haiku-style." –Paul Whiting [September 19th, 2023]
