Gentian's Lexical Tomfoolery

[Gentian]

I have a lot of threads here. Gray suggested a while ago that I create a general thread for my pics, to make them easier to find. Sounds like a good idea. With all the verbal abortions I squeeze out, a general for them is probably in order too. So, with that in mind, I'm going to put links to my extant poetry/song/whatever threads here, and add something new too. In the future, this will be where my new stuff will end up being posted.

Thanks, Gray.

And my new thread for NSFW stuff.

Now for the new thingie.

The Villanous Noble introduced me to a new kind of poem called a tanka. A little research shows it's format is surprisingly varied, but in the west, is most commonly given a 5/7/5/7/7 meter, and may or may not contain a volte.

Here's a humble attempt: A Demigoddess Goes Slumming

In darkness she grins
calling her power, sparkling
eyes in horn's soft light,
but brighter still her heart flares:
Violet burns for Gentian.
