Let's write some tankas! A tanka is a Japanese verse form of 31 syllables in five unrhymed lines, the first and third having five syllables each, and the others seven
Here's mine I worked really hard on this counting syllables and shit: I like the blue sky But the clouds get in the way I hate the wet grass It causes my leg to itch So I will sit on the porch Your turn! Under certain circumstances, urgent circumstances, desperate circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer. | |

I think so ... Oh yeah, that's good. I meant put either "it is" or "do not" so you would have the right amount of syllables, but your change was better Under certain circumstances, urgent circumstances, desperate circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer. | |
