TAKE OFF (photomorph) & THE TRUE QUESTION (dream tanka pair) by Roswila

THE TRUE QUESTION

new pink satin slippers,
dinnerware of real silver,
and now this long trip
through Europe by boat and train
with return via private jet

the question is not
why is she so demanding
(he clearly gives her
everything she hits him up for)
but why he never just says "no"

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers, as the above is), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
