Hoarfrost (Tanka)

when we are obsessed
demanding knowledge of all
we lose the beauty
the hoarfrost in its glory
does not need explanation

Colors of a Life in Shadow (Choka/Senryu)

 

Free use image by Stefan Keller on Pixabay

I used to be nice
when all things were possible
bright colors of life

in the blue hotel
porcelain skin fades to gray
shades block out the light

I am seen as mean
when I refuse advances
predatory men

my heart draws the shade
against games that lead to naught
I protect myself

~cie~


write a nice and/or mean poem

I used the Quadrille prompt from D'verse Poets, which was "Possibility." However, Quadrille poems are supposed to be 44 words. This poem is 53 words, and I didn't want to remove any of them because it would ruin the flow.

I'll give credit because I used the prompt.
