Things So Real – A Tanka

Things so real I see

Punished by bizarre demons

Under hellish sky

Shudder and shake, eyes flutter

Another sweat drenched nightmare

  1. another powerful piece – so many meanings – yes, i can see a nightmare, but i also see depression, the devastation caused by the recent tornado in Oklahoma City – or any disaster or any social injustice really. we watch video on screens and we know it is real, but since we are not there physically, it ‘seems’ real. “sweat drenched nightmare” – tears of sorrow.

    lovely piece:)
