Indigo
cold brooding night
is kept
jealous and waiting,
while lunar mistress
takes herself a lover
the moon-
her milky luminescence
warms him in spite
the lack of heat
from an indigo soul

Lorelai: So, I brought us some coffee.
Rory: Why, I'm shocked.
Lorelai: Triple caps, easy foam. If that doesn't work, we'll stick our fingers in a light socket.

I've been writing tanka for a year come this March and it's a form I enjoy writing - I'm thrilled reading something of mine might help you bring to light what you have.
If you ever have time, there's more tanka of mine in my gallery - especially April 2008 when I participated in a Tanka Awareness Month - a tanka a day all month!

I went through my gallery and found my first tanka was posted January 22, 2008 - I'm now into my 2nd year of writing tanka. While I'm at it, I'll post links below to some of my other works of this same style for ease of reference. I hope you'll enjoy - the range is various, with 4-line as well as 5-line styles:
"Black Tanka" [link]
"Death Tanka 1" [link]
"Death Tanka 2" [link]
"Tanka series I" [link]
"Tanka Sex Talk" [link]
"April Tanka Collection" [link]
I look forward to your thoughts, and the unveiling of your own works.

I've never been able to to hide my haiku addiction but equally love tanka – yet got caught up posting more prose than poetry online so am still working on balancing my writing scales. ^_^
Thanx again.
