A Confession in Tanka Posted by Shanyu on October 3, 2021October 3, 2021 ~ Exhilarating,That time, when I stabbed the sky,The world slept in peace,The horizon bled to dawn,And I killed, sleeplessly, the night. ~ Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Like this:Like Loading...

Beautiful! And it’s cool to see the tanka form! I feel like I see haiku fairly often, but I haven’t seen many tanka verses.
