"A Market Square with Sheep Auction" (1919) by Winifred Knights [1899–1947].
1919 visionary
the market square
soon to disappear
she paints in sepia
as if to mark the scene
as already vintage

A cherita is a haiku-like poem of three stanzas that tells a "story." The first stanza is one line and sets the scene. Stanza two is two lines, stanza three is three lines. A cherita terbalik is a cherita with the order of the stanzas rearranged.
