Tanka

Tanka When utilities Are privately owned We are prisoners Caught in a web of avarice Capitalism gone viral Senryu On the opposite wall The sun shines bright and summery Typical! Words. When I speak I get lost in the fog of words When alone I can see forever

Jan - The last one is a corker. (I don't know what a corker is - but it seems to fit). It is pure Jan Oskar. I love all three. "Capitalism Gone Viral" has you written all over it too. I am Catholic (not as Catholic as I used to be -- but it always has hold of me) and I take no offence at your poem. love, Kathy
