TANKA TO TANKA INTERACTION ECHOES 112: GATES AND GUARDS

TANKA TO TANKA INTERACTION ECHOES 112: GATES AND GUARDS

Claudia McGill responded to echoes 111 in another Tanka, thus:

 

sound waves spread voices

flowing over and across

the wide-open sky

stretching out past gravity

through the narrow gates of speech

 

To honour another poet and her Tanka, this is my response:

 

unwary sense doors

free flow of affinity

aural to oral

message distortion across

care with the gates and lax guards
