Challenge
Do the double tanka with me! Two stanzas, five lines each, 5-7-5-7-7 syllable form each stanza (see my "Bonkers" for something of an example). Tag me, if you please! #doubletanka
the weightless
there was a darkness
i dipped my head in starlight
molten-white sunspots
a blinking milky way crown
a head on fire til it's not --
the blaze will not last
it is quickly snuffed, i guess
there is no slow fade
just a quiet, flashing waltz
of weight then lightness then weight
