On Thursday, December 18, the poetry class at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki and I composed a group cinquain. Here's the format we were using: 1st line- one word that names the topic
2nd line- two words that appeal to the senses
3rd line- three words that describe an action
4th line- two words that name an emotion
5th line- one word that is a new name for the topic
Since Professor Kitsi was recording the final version on the board, I have only my sketchy notes for what we came up with. Here is my best recollection, including two alternatives for very different endings. Dr. Kitsi or any of the students can feel free to correct me.
morning
warm messiness
drinking coffee kisses
dizzy tenderness (or tender dizziness)
hangover (or love)
