Sepid Persian Poetry

Sepid Persian Poetry

Sepid poetry is a type of Modern Persian poetry.

The word "sepid" means "white" and it refers to a certain class of Persian poetry initiated by Ahmad Shamloo and came to its mature form and general acceptance after Bijan Jalali.

Sepid poetry is a kind of free verse that departs from the tightly balanced rhythm and rhymes of classical Persian poetry. [ [http://www.solopublications.com/jur00lr.htm Journal Page jur00lr ] ]

The Persian language is written in a form of the Arabic alphabet. Since the Arabic language has no "p", Persian words are written with "f". The preferred manner in Persian poetry is with the "p" using a letter added for that sound. The Arabic form is "sefid" (pronounced: sefeed) and the proper Persian form "sepid".

For the last two decades of his life, Manouchehr Atashi was also involved in Sepid poetry.
