An enchanting mix of English and Japanese, carnal and divine, sparkling banter and deep vulnerability, Dane Ince's and Mercedes' Morning Tanka distills volumes of intimacy into a series of short-form Tanka poems. Its central partners swap love notes, pillow talk, and deep confession, giving us a privileged glimpse of their inner lives and the beautiful poetry [their] hearts write together.--Emily Cordes, author of Armful of Poppies and Queen of Swords
A journal of thank you notes between lovers, California poems in the style of traditional Japanese form poetry In English and Japanese. In the tradition of the Beat poets, the writers practice the form of Japanese poetry that originated in the seventh century. Tanka poems are thirty-one syllables in five lines and more expansive than the three-line haiku, yet still the compression confines the poet to just the exact words to convey gratefulness for the blessings of love. The translations are by Yuri Miki a Japanese Slam poetry champion.
