Gogyohka Poem
A chapter in the book Tanka Collection
Wrapped in Pain
by Gypsy Blue Rose
wrapped in pain,
waiting for the tide to rush in and take sand castles with fragile curtain walls to be
washed
away
offshore
 |
"Pain is inevitable, suffering is optional." - Buddhist Proverb
A curtain wall is a defensive wall between two fortified towers of a castle
GOGYOHKA is a five-line free-style Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllable count but as brief as possible. Any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay but never rhyme. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe. === source = writers digest ===source=wikipedia
