Earl Grey - A nightmare
A teapot
Scented water taste
All is grey?

I wonder about
She wanders about

I must say
I prefer tanka

It allows an end
Or I'd have to use...


...five seven five and that wouldn't work for me at all since I tend to write too much if I get the space, so this format is good for me as it helps me stay true to the core essence of my thoughts.

Freak am I
Observed from a far
Floating here

Space is vast and dark
weakened starlight late
