Notes About The Poem

PONDERING TANKA THOUGHTS ON JANUARY 6, 2026

 

January 6th celebration:

Military invasion—

A polity’s crime:-

White House invasion paid off:

Venezuela, even more:-

 

Celebrating crime,

Has become our polity’s

Bigoted pastime:

Nixon and Khrushchev down there,

In one hell of confusion:-

 

What a well planned day!

And more hell is on the way:

Maybe, on this day:-

Is this what was voted for?

Oh yeah, “You reap what was sown:-
