my New Year poem,
writing is making love
to the muse ...
a raw primal pleasure
coming in wave after wave

Note: The tanka above is the last poem in my 27-tanka sequence, Calliope/My Ex: Love/Trouble Maker , and the tanka below is the opening poem:
I am not
into her anymore
but I promise
to make her live forever
