Those who dabble in modern flavors of Japanese style poetry (e.g. haiku, renga) may wish to follow up on rengay if you're unfamiliar with the term & style.

A few of us have dabbled in it recently here on the Masto. Would be fun to see it grow. Just dive in (personal protective equipment recommended 😅 )

Just posted an old solo rengay, and happy for solo or joint work with another poet for Pan Haiku Review 👍
