1. Tanka with digital art
how could I help it—
escaping with the spring moon
on this quilted night
somewhere a slow, shifting sound
and ink melts, slips over stone

2. 2 Haiku
1.
spring nightfall
ink melts
over stone
tombée du jour
l'encre fond
sur la pierre
2.
back and forth
grinding ink slowly
the weight of my words
allant et venant
broyant l'encre lentement
le poids de mes mots
DW Bender, 2000
