say YES! ©️Dawn Minott |a Sedoka

On By Dawn MinottIn Poetry

Yearning to be touched
Hunger for intimacy
Satisfied in your embrace

Gently, lovingly
Connected in this moment
In love’s surrender, say YES!

Afterword: Today’s R&B-poetry collaboration is inspired by Floetry. Floetry is the true epítome of R&B and poetry colliding as this duo-group started on the performance poetry stage.

A sedōka is a pair of katautas of the 5,7,7 syllabic arrangement. A katauta, a Japanese poetic form that consists of 17 or 19 syllables arranged in three lines of either 5, 7, and 5 or 5, 7, and 7 syllables. The form was used for poems addressed to a lover. A single katauta was considered incomplete or a half-poem.
