Something Awful Comes This Way!

This round we'll be writing Tankas. A tanka is a Japanese poetry form, based on a haiku, that is five/seven/five/seven/seven.


Christmas Toejam Tanka

Toejam spreads like cold
snow blowing over fields of
rye, dappled under

moonlit skies, smelly slushy
rolls of goo betwixt my toes.


Your prompts for this round are: something of the body (in this case toejam,) winter or a winter holiday (Hunnaka or Christmas or Kwanza.)

This prompt requires only one Tanka, no chains.

This round will close at Midnight tonight!
