Tanka - Steampunk
Out of steam
The boiler is cold
Silent gears
Tell a tale of loss
An empty tank

Man apart
No tribe to belong
Only roads
Leading to nowhere
Blacktop salvation

Tanka - Steampunk
Taste of age old rust
Bitter flavor on my tongue
I swallow it whole
Thankfull for weathered iron
To feed my gear driven soul

Tanka - Love.Hate.Machine
Dual wheel Anarchy
Twisted throttle, twisted soul
Spun out on the streets
Desperate for salvation
Sung by redline engine howl

Pantoum - Bat Country
There’s a bat in my house
There are bats in my head
They all want out
I just want it to end
There are bats in my head
Flapping, wildly about
I just want it to end
But, they won’t give it a rest
Flapping, wildly about
On their leathery little wings
They won’t give it a rest
I think they’re driving me mad
On their leathery little wings
They tap out a beat
They’re driving me mad
Crazy with their disco heat
They tap out a beat
These bats in my head
Crazy from their disco heat
Sanities at an end
These bats in my head
Thoughts of a flying mouse
Sanities at its end
Did I mention, I’ve a bat in my house?

My first attempt at this form of poem. I enjoyed trying something a little different.

Hazy sky tastes grey
Clouds becoming strange faces
Must be drunk again

Tanka - Poem of the Living Dead
We are breaking free
From all of the old confines
Weary of the dirt
We are not ready to rest
Rather go shopping instead

Soft sweet sin, my love
I want you more each moment
That passes without
