    Create your forum
    Toot your own horn; beat your drum
    Welcome smart and dumb
    Either get out or belong
    Here in this box — troll or chum

    Twiddling your thumb
    Peachy happy; chewing glum
    Open door or mum
    Knowledge picking, sharing crumb
    One for all or all from some

    Two boring samples while working tanka in monorhyme.

    God can’t always hear!
    Prayers you hold heartfelt dear
    Anger, hate and fear
    Envious to killing tear
    Cain-not, un-Abel revere

    Brotherly love peer
    Helpful hands decisions steer
    Or work hard career?
    Feed me now! Not oil or beer.
    Worldwide starvation to clear.

    Responsible gear
    Men in charge to disappear
    Accountable cheer
    Gnashing of golden teeth sneer
    Spreading of garlic breath ‘shmear’

    God is near and here.
    Within immediate sphere
    Loving volunteer
    Outward some-thing to revere
    Inward no-thing so sincere

    Four selfless samples of boogered tanka in monorhyme.

    Atheist
    Selfish little pods!
    Deny existence of gods
    Or other divine squads
    Small minds of nothingness façades!
    Zero is some-times at odds.

    Agnostic
    Infinitely blind
    Impossible, undefined
    Up to a point mind
    Ki power of the Son find
    Where time and space intertwined

    Infidel
    In the hollow wood
    None-believers covered hood
    Some misunderstood.
    Most owls hoot, with big eyes, could
    Love not hate or fear – All good.

    Skeptic
    All doctrines and creeds
    Eyes and ears of doubting bleeds.
    Brain-washing succeeds
    Skip Old to New ticks proceeds
    Give well a note Truthful deeds

    Four similar samples of valid tankas in monorhyme.
