Mark 4/6 ★
RAISE, STAND, dream in color
SCUBA flow through glitz forest
Stop, smell the SUMAC

Debbie Wilson 3/6
SWIRL of noxious SMOKE
A STUMP cut and charred remains
Soon the SUMAC rash

auntie jj 4/6
bright TABLE display
weighed in GRAMS to AMUSE us
heaped crimson SUMAC

Starr 4/6
The sea is IRATE
Wishy WASHY SCUBA dive
Rice lunch with SUMAC

Mick 5/6
VIOLA withered
FRAME skint, MANGY, rot AMUCK —
Worn thrum, SUMAC cold

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
