    Hunger has no home
    here. Lick your lips, collect the
    final little drops.
    Sit back, relax, without guilt.
    It was for you, all for you.

    Ares’ spear bloody,
    Violet lightning glistens bright
    War personified.
    The Red Horse Rider with blade—
    And Death and Hell followed him…


    Nexus of time
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    Einstein overlooked
    the significance of time
    all he thought was light
    but there is something beyond
    faster than light and that's Time

    When asked how World War III would be fought, Einstein replied that he didn't know. But he knew how World War IV would be fought: With sticks and stones.

    Hands up, boy, all times!
    Protect that lantern-jaw, hear?
    What did I say, boy?
    Protect my jaw, Boss. I did.

    it seemed
    unnatural
    as if a shadow lurked
    as if a Himalaya moved
    ding, dong!

    One might prove other's being--
    But which proceeds which?
    Arguement ensues hotly
    Nothing becomes certain sure...

    he lay dead in grave
    wrapped in a silken coffin
    to keep off his smell
    but hyenas are clever
    they got him and ate him up!

    Maz not only did not leave a word for me, but I cannot see how his tanka ties into my word, which was "raindancer". So I will choose my own word, and that word will be insult

    Cor, mate! In a twist?
    Guy thinks 'es a ruddy twee!
    Loose yer mum, now, Luv?
    No glass. Baby needs bottle.
    No, mate, called yer poofter...

    the word is Raindancer
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    sorry, Pen, I forgot to leave a word and it's okay that you used your discretion


    BTW
    rain dancer is (also) a festival where old grits make most of their time in jolly pleasure/entertainment. There could be other meanings but I don't know what was in your mind

    old chimp
    and a baboon
    dance in the rain with joy
    and sing a song of olden days
    all wet

    sorry got all mixed up - here is the tanka

    drops of rain water
    flush the visage of flowers
    give them a new look
    the garden shines with rubies
    dancing in the atmosphere

    insult
