Dog Days

Dog days pass slowly
air is thick but there ain't no
miracle waitin
funnel cloud on horizon
and we’re still in Kansas, friend.

Made me think of the wizard of oz. I've never been to kansas, I'd be afraid of the weather. good tanka though, I like this form, its still pretty new to me, but it says so much in so little.

Thanks Casarah, yes the form is new to me as well but is interesting in that it allows just a little more than haiku.
