Doctor Sonia Sanchez created her own form based on the #haiku, she calls hers #sonku.
often I want to create my own form as well. i did craft a one line #tanka called #monotanka and at one time I was going to call it #ichigyohka (one lined song).

because #tanka is a poetry made of five sound unit groupings which in English has been translated to mean '5 lines;' when i experiment with #monotanka (one line tanka, a term i coined/created back in 2008 i think) to show the '5 pts' I would use periods. you can see this in the few pieces ive shared
