| 1. | highku | ||
|
a type of short form zen poetry that's the same as haiku (ie., 5-7-5 syl per line) but which has reference to altered states of consciousness. When the doors of perception are thrown wide or torn off their fasteners; short verse constructs such as highku can capture moments, realizations and altered glimpses of other states of consciousness.

A standard haiku, only written when high. My highku:
The great octopus, Strangles with his tentacles, And shows no mercy. |
