Featured ★Worku
ⓘ A voice rises in fury. The crowd bows. One body gathers itself, waiting.

This poem lives in the moment before release — authority pressing down, motion held tight, nothing resolved yet. Tension is the point

Mick 4/6 ★
“RAISE” RAGED the prophet
all hands in RAVEL, downcast —
the RACER coils, poised

Debbie Wilson 4/6
Last again – A SLUMP
The FRANK facts – CARVE out a win
Or RACER no more

Mark 4/6
RAISE up the RAVEN
Nevermore RAGED the mad poet
The RACER bit hard

MoneyD 4/6
Don’t STARE at the goal,
Don’t RELAY to the RAVEN,
Run like a RACER.

auntie jj 2/6 (2 entries)
time to BRACE yourself
the RACER is at the start
Gun blows, runner trips!

the leg BRACE impedes
time supposedly heals all
not for this RACER

Starr 4/6
ARISE all ye men
CARED for by the kind PACER
Go far young RACER

what it is

  • worku is a daily practice where your wordle guesses become a haiku
  • use your guesses in the same order you played them
  • aim for imagery and flavor over perfect grammar
  • add a touch of nature, humor, or irony

“Worku is good for saying what you are thinking, which is why I have so many about cheese. Nice finding a place.” — Mark
