I like the way Tanka poems just sort of smack the reader in the face. Especially, when the poem puts us in such a vivid place with a harvest moon and ebony eyes, building the crescendo and anticipation of the bite. Great job. :-)

Lovely. Very sexy in a creepy kind of way. Is he a vampire?
The picture is also great.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful tanka.

Sounds like vampires :P This is a really neat poem. I like the way you put your words together. It flows like water and left me wanting more--I wanted to know if he was a vampire :P

That's a VERY COOL picture you've got there accompanying your seductively well written tanka, Gypsy.
She looks like the kinda girl I might go for, if I were about twenty years younger, heh-heh.
I'll say this for her.
She most certainly has great taste in fashion.
Beautifully done...

I might nibble on her myself. A great example of Tanka. I notice a trend. You're writing more Tanka now. It's excellent. You really have a way with words.

You've penned a good poem.
It consists of five lines that contain a syllable count: 2-3-7-5-2
Total syllable count: 19
Great artwork: The image shown supports the poem. The background color chosen goes well with the art and the color of font.
Thanks for sharing your Tanka.
Good luck with your future writing.
