Seems like I forgot to do a tanka. Better late than never? Well today I'm making up for it and giving you two of them for the price of one.

Oh home sweet home here
Yet something is terrible here
Something tattered, torn.

Oh, what is it you may ask?
Payment for many broken lives.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Lives here and there all
Intertwined by fate and chance
People all around us

Who knows what is happening?
Except for those ill fated.

Hmm...Not the most inspiring thing I've ever written. Well let me know if this is too dark and I will change it. Or if it's fine the way it is and I should keep it.
