    Thank you very much, my friend. Have a wonderful night. I appreciate your helpful feedback. I corrected that. It was a syllable thing but I figured out.

That is interesting because the first thing I immediately thought on reading the title was Annie Wilkes from Misery.

A perfect lead in to your modern tanka. Much enjoyed reading this today. :))

Striking picture and clever verse to match. The progression throughout the 7 lines was effective and conveyed in few words an "emotionally stirring" verse as the Tanka requires. Well done! Best wishes, Debbie

What a hunk (smile). Loved your Tanka, Gypsy - this is a bit different from your writes. I enjoyed it very much.

Great imagery, visuals and terrific artistic presentation.

    The original picture shows his abdomen and more... I covered it to keep it clean. Hehe. It's an amazing picture. I have a big crush on him. He is sexy, funny, humble , and an exceptional actor. Can you tell I like him? LoL

    Thank you very much, my friend. Have a wonderful night.

Is this a celebrity that you know? I'm trying to look at the words in your poem and I'm wondering if this person performs on the street in California. Perhaps plays a musical instrument for the public....

    Pablo Pascal is a wonderful actor. He has played hundreds of movies. The most recent are the last of us and the mandalorian. I live in Los Angeles so I have a good chance to meet him.

    Thank you very much, my friend. Have a wonderful night.
