Since Allen Ginsberg coined the phrase for his 17 syllable sentences and I started to write them as well each day two years ago, I have been in search of a better name. I am now writing 12 syllable sentences that capture and moment or a thought in my day, but have still not come up with a better name for these artistic brief word pictures. So for now "Canadian Sentences" have morphed into American/Canadian Sentences and into "North American Sentences", although they have nothing related specifically to geography except the landscape of the mind. So for now "North American Sentences" it is.
Suggestions?

I suggest you call them "Sublime Sentences." It has a lovely ring, plus, mathematically, twelve is a "sublime number" - a number that has a perfect number of divisors, and the sum of its divisors is also a perfect number.
