COVID-19 tanka: 001
people wait in line
to receive injections:
lumps of curdled cream
floating in the coffee,
expired prematurely
4.16.2022
5/6/5/6/6 English contemporary syllable count
Includes a traditional kakekotoba (pivot/"swing bridge")
Metaphor & symbolism stays intact when the tanka above is read from bottom to top
