Summary
Urban Haiku Podcast | More City Life in Short Poetry Step into the streets, gyms, roads, and temples of contemporary poetry with this episode of the Poetry Pea Podcast , dedicated to urban haiku and senryū . In this instalment of the Urban Haiku series, we continue to explore how modern city life finds expression through short-form poetry—capturing fleeting moments, human interactions, and everyday urban scenes in just a few carefully chosen words. Featuring unpublished and published urban haiku and senryū submitted by members of the Poetry Pea community, this episode offers listeners the chance to hear fresh work while also engaging with questions of form, and categorisation. What makes a poem haiku rather than senryū? How does urban experience shape contemporary haiku writing? And how do poets adapt traditional forms to modern settings? Perfect for haiku poets, short-form poetry lovers, and writers interested in contemporary haiku , this episode aims to inspire you to try writing urban poetry yourself—especially if you’re considering submitting to a current or future Poetry Pea haiku call-out. You’ll also hear updates on Poetry Pea opportunities, including YouTube writing prompts, three-word challenges, and upcoming features such as the Golden Pea Awards . 🎧 Listen, reflect, and be inspired to write your own urban haiku. 📺 Don’t forget to explore the Poetry Pea YouTube channel and membership options for more ways to write, submit, and publish short poetry.
