BUSSO (Bussokusekika) is an old rare form of Japanese poetry comprising six lines written in a 5-7-5-7-7-7 syllables pattern. It was created in the 8th century and was written from 710 to 1185. They are usually written about religion or philosophical beliefs but contemporary Busso can be any subject. source
