Hey there!
Today I attempted a Tanka, which is another form of Japanese poetry, two 7-syllable lines longer than a Haiku (so following the pattern of 5-7-5-7-7). I didn’t find any guidance on Wikipedia as to what the subject matter is supposed to be, so I just went with what sprang to mind!
I turn on my icy glare
And smile as you flee.
I crystalise my might while
You melt away to nothing.
