Prompt:
Write a sijo.
This is a traditional Korean verse form.
A sijo has three lines of 14-16 syllables.
The first line introduces the poem’s theme,
the second discusses it, and the third line,
which is divided into two sentences or clauses,
ends the poem – usually with some kind of twist or surprise.
