Today, a tanka:
ambitious rulers
spitting in the cold black wind
rapacious villains
spinning incredible yarns
the face of newfound ugly

The pattern always repeats. Great words.
newfound ugly - alas how true
great use of the prompt. hope all is well.
love your artwork.
I haven't done a tanka in such a long time. And you deftly nailed this one.
That last line cinches it. Wonderful through and through...
Hi sue! Your writing is very powerful. I loved rapacious here and the piece above this was awesome!
This is truly an expressive tanka, strong and telling thoughts. Very well done!
This is well done and sadly true of the world we live in. Newfound ugly is right. As if the old ugly wasn't enough.
nicely done....and thank you for sharing
I loved this tanka.
Review in verse
I can see that you've been overdosing on the news coverage this past week or so. It seems a little like watching a accident in slow motion (not your poem which is wonderful, the events of the world).
Tanks,hmm I am reading one for the 1st tym.
Wud try to catch its details soon as the way you presented is interesting and makes me yearn for more.
