One-line poems

[Boele, O.F.]

Dear Seelangers,

In 1894 Valerii Briusov wrote a number of one-line poems, the most
infamous of which is, of course, "O, zakroi svoi blednye nogi!" I'm sure
Briusov wasn't the only poet to practice this "genre," but I don't know
who else was. Do you have any suggestions? I prefer Russian poems from
the early twentieth century, but examples from a later period or some
other national literature are also welcome. 

Thanks!
