The word smol is an internet slang term derived from small, used affectionately to describe something or someone that is tiny, fragile, and exceptionally adorable. Smols, a haiku-inspired genre created by NeverEnding Story contributor Roberta Beach Jacobson, are ultra-short poems—no more than five words—built on effective juxtaposition.
Selected Smols:

FYI: L2 alludes to the 1998 movie, The Truman Show, about Truman Burbank, an ordinary man who discovers that his entire life, from his hometown to his relationships, is a massive, 24/7 reality television show broadcast globally, with everyone he knows being actors.
