We're still unused

We're still unused to the sun up so high, so late. Perhaps we'll accept its new place by the time we start to curse its persistence.


Tanka is a form of Japanese poetry which translates as "short song." It is 31 syllables and often broken up into five lines of 5/7/5/7/7 syllables.
