Tanka on Thursday this time
This one isn't part of any challenge, but I wanted to still post a tanka this week. In the upcoming zine, I talk a bit about the tanka form and include a few new ones. Here is one I wrote recently, about how I feel when I have a migraine headache, which makes for a miserable day.

I will stay in bed
no meds can help just sleeping
soft blanket and cat
it’s going to be all right
restless sigh for a lost day
