I surely do. I got the Titanic part just from your well used photo to do with your well penned poem. Good luck in the contest. Thanks for sharing, Deb

I'm guilty of a holidy pi., in this pose - now I'm squirming!
You manage to put your characteristic energy and life even into a tanka, don't you??
Good luck in the contest, Sharyn!

Comment from Patti R.
This is just TOO funny, Sharyn! Serves them (her) right for being so Hollywood! I haven't seen the movie but saw enough hype that I recognize the pose.
blue-grey needs more green like an older woman would prefer brighter shades of eyeshadow, the greens and peacock blues of the seventies and sixties would do nicely!
It is high time for originality of thought - better ideas, new ideas, not the same old same old - loved this one.

Well, we all need to do that, don't we? Love the message here, and you've created a very original tanka. The artwork made me snort with laughter, especially coupled with the Titanic reference. Very clever. Good luck in the contest, my very original friend!

Not sure about the double entendre. Are you saying the Titanic story if redone should be on land? With global warming, who knows? Love the picture. Wonder if it was done with photoshop?

great piccy, isn't it? I get so tired of derivative movies and writes, and I'm also tired of watching the world do the same old crappy stuff re the environment - we need new ideas, not the same crap over and over again which we know don't work. :)
