Someone not me sits

in #poetry7 years ago

Someone, not me, sits
in bright but scanty clothing
on bleached, sun-kissed sands.
What I would give to be there
turns out not to be that much.


Tanka is a form of Japanese poetry which translates as "short song." It is 31 syllables and often broken up into five lines of 5/7/5/7/7 syllables.
