Brachycolon ( other Greek βραχύς - short and κῶλον - member) is a monocotyledon poetic size , in other words, a verse from only stressed syllables.
Examples of brachycolon were already found in late Roman poetry [1] . In Russian poetic practice, brachycolon, apparently, first appears among experimental poets of the early 20th century. The most famous examples of brachycolon include, in particular, the poem of Vladislav Khodasevich (1928):
 | Forehead - A piece of chalk. Bel Coffin. Sang Pop Sheaf Arrow - Day Holy Crypt Blind Shadow - In hell! |  |
Other authors whose works or passages are written in the form of a brachycolon include Vladimir Mayakovsky , Nikolai Aseev , Alexander Bezymensky .
