Tanka –

Like a haiku,

but with two additional lines

(5-7-5-7-7).

Great for capturing short, intense moments.

---

angelic the sea

oh no she cheated on me

so free so wild deep

my value is true so blue

I want to dive back in oop

---

summarize my life

it looks and it feels unique

I drive- vehicle

the body mind construct time

ethereal plain void same

---

Another Villanelle

Fireball pitch to the earth I might cry
does any of it matter
we are but constructs- made up

Everything ~ every thing: I am
Fireball pitch to the earth I might cry
does any of it matter
the sky space galaxies Infinite universes & realities.. sup?

aren’t we grateful for Sam?
Fireball pitch to the earth I might cry
does any of it matter
fit me in a box fit me in a container contain me Tupperware tup tup.

all I have- all I thought- fam..
Fireball pitch to the earth I might cry
does any of it matter
Empty and full like the cup

look at the stars glaze over the art I can
Fireball pitch to the earth I might cry
does any of it matter
by blood by what made up don’t touch

okayman
Fireball pitch to the earth I might cry
does any of it matter
suck suck suck the life out of us
