Form of the week: Eintou
by Dave Author IconMail Icon
The Eintou is an African American form which embraces the African culture and philosophy. The structure consists of seven lines with 2, 4, 6, 8, 6, 4, 2, with a variation counting words instead of syllables available. When centered the composition evokes the image of a pearl, as described and demonstrated in the following links:
