5-7-5 syllables...
17 syllables for the total verse.

It was a work in motion, not complete. So it was in an odd form still, but I thought I'd build it in a running thread to do something different. Alas...

I prefer Tanka - 5/7/5/7/7 for a total of 31 syllables.

I ride my fixie
Pleasant early autumn night
Leaves rustle and talk

Streetlights shine on empty roads
Nobody knows this but me

Just five syllables?
How can that make sense to you?
Screw this dumb nonsense!
