This was okay, but I really didn't grab me. The imagery went over my head. The flow was nice. Best of luck to you.****************************************************
Good writing,
Larry

I like anything that can get people to think and yes this little number made me think, excellent.
p.s. I like your courage at placing this small poem up on this site, I written something similar but did not have your courage maybe I will now, Thanks.
Good Fortune and Vidi Well

I liked this - its one of your more approachable pieces. The only 'nit' being the word caution, maybe cautious would be a better choice for the tense . . . enjoyed it! Zen

"I advance, you warn 5
If faster, you too caution 7
Open heart, you look at 6
If write simply, you jeer at 7
If hard or complex, point at" 7
I kinda got stuck on the last 2 lines. Line 3 is 6 syllables.
Cheers

There are six syllables in line three. How about "wide" or "free" or "raw?"
I think you've done a great job of conveying the message withing the confines of the TANKA. The poem speaks to the reader and I don't know anybody who would disagree with your message.

It's all your fault
Or perhaps it's his
Doesn't really matter
It's none of my biz
I like this little bit
With its message so clear
Must take responsibility
No matter our fear. :)

the writer of this small story of sorts just explains i think the fact that he just can't seem to come to terms with someone, can't get close. i come close-you say step back, if i move fast-you say take it slow. seems as though he just can't progress.

If write simply, you jeer at
If hard or complex, point at
Hard to please everyone. Somtimes the most inane piece gets the priase.
I think your footnote summed it well.
Few words but a clear message.

It seems to be saying that you are damned if you do and damned if you don't but that is only my view. I hope I have not over looked a deeper meaning. This one is hard for me to understand, I guess. Afterall, I am not a poet.
