A Dishonoured Land (a Tanka)

The storm at the Box Office Cafe, and Frankie sheltering from the storm …



A Dishonoured Land (a Tanka)




Today, time decreed

Nature’s enslaved angry storm

Be discharged upon

The unsympathetic world

To cleanse the dishonoured land

G'day, and welcome to my blog site. My name is Ivor Steven, I live in Geelong, Australia. I'm an ex-industrial chemist, and a retired plumber, and a former Carer of my wife(Carole), for 30 years, who suffered from severe MS. I Write poetry about those personal thoughts, throughout and beyond my life as a Carer. I've been blogging for over 2 years, and writing poems for 19 years. Of course a lot of my poems are about my favourite subject Carole, but since I've been blogging my writings have become quite varied, humourous, mystical, observational, and even a few monster/horror poems.

  5. and, it’s only natural, that Mother Nature is now, PISSED off at how we became, which is why there’s the MERS-CoV, and other forms of “natural disasters” all around the world right now, because we as humans, keep on RAPING Mother Nature of her resources, keep taking things that don’t belong to us without asking, and now, the WRATH is coming down us all!
