April 23 Tanka confessional
I just wrote to form
one of the worst poems ever
the elements met
without heart in harmony
with the rhythm and sonics

rhyme and syllables
predestined by previous
invention template
to emulate and torture
words and meaning to comply

Maybe that is why
I prefer to write free verse
without restriction.
