Tanka #1

April 7th, 2007 by Richard Cockrum

One moment, one blink,
One beat, stacked one upon one.
Born in the lapse of
The synapse. Neurons jostle.
Eternity bound by life.

   Thanks, Trevor. The picture is from one my son took near Venice, Florida. He has some other good ones at High Resolution Wallpapers.

   Hi, I really like your article on emotional addictions. I am in the process of publishing my book pertaining to this issue as well as I have developed a workshop regarding abuse and emotional addiction. I would love to discuss this matter with your organization further.

   Oh Richard, this is a gem.

   Once I teased out one thing, another one followed, then another.

   Then another.

   I continued this delightful little dance with these lines, being teased, while I teased.

   Would you mind if I offered a commentary on this poem on my blog? Or, would you prefer that I send it to you beforehand for an endorsement?

   You’re more than welcome to offer a commentary of the poem on your site, Derek. There’s no need to send it to me beforehand for an endorsement. That would be like a film reviewer getting a director’s approval before publishing a movie review. I’ll be by to read it after you’re done. I enjoy seeing what people find in my work.
