Imbalance – A Tanka

Shadows overhead

Cast my soul into darkness

Threatening to drown

Though I know this is not me

Imbalance marks me victim

    Are you alright, Dom? You have been a bit dark the last few days. Of course, I am just paranoid. I worry. Really have come to think of you as a friend.

      Yes, I am fine, I really appreciate you asking. I am just in one of my dark writing moods, but actually have been feeling quite happy with life lately. I suppose that it is a little odd to write about the opposite of what I am feeling at that moment, I guess it is just one of my quirks. I consider you a friend as well Ionia, since no one but a friend would have shown even the slightest concern. No need to worry. :)

        I would love a singing squirrel-O-gram, that would be the highlight of my day and something I bet my co-workers never got. I can’t wait…don’t tease me…sorry I know that sounded NUTS. :)

    Hi – I am just now getting to this price e – a few days late. I understand the writing from the dark when dark is not what you are experiencing. I do that. And then again I go way deep dark when I feel that way too. I am happy you are doing well. I really miss your work when I have been unable to get to my reader. ;)

      Thank you Kimberly. I really try not to let myself get too dark although it is impossible to avoid completely. We all have times when we are in that place, but I don’t allow myself to stay their too long, it really would be a horrible way to live. I hope that all is well with you and it is good to hear from you my friend. :)
