A DADAIST TANKA

The piano fled

The snowy sun blew bunnies

Sassy lass sashayed

Tring ling bring dring sing song sing

The ants chased a football tooth

  8. Excellent use of form, and bang on with the prompt. Like Brian, I zeroed in on the line /the snowy sun blew bunnies/ which innocently creates quite ribald imagery, & adds to the fun--having fun with this prompt was the order of the day.

  9. Very fun and on point. You included sound, rhyme and, of course, a bit of disconnect. Thanks!

  14. When pianos flee 'tis time for all to hunker
    a tuneless day, a carrotless bunny
    clouds rise
    and stones clobber

    Nice poem!

  18. Well I liked best that fleeing piano-pianos are not often fleet of foot! Not like sassy lasses! K.
