Modern English Tanka cinquain submissions
Denis Garrison, the editor emeritus of Amaze: The Cinquain Journal, publishes Modern English Tanka (MET), a webzine of tanka which will consider cinquain as a "set form tanka."
As an example, I offer my cinquain ermine from Simply Haiku:
ermine
against her cheeks
naked before the fire--
a California girl unused
to snow
- Deborah P Kolodji
Simply Haiku, Summer 2006
A "set-form tanka" cinquains would be untitled, would contain a turn/pivot, and would be written in the "tanka spirit."
Michael L. Evans has nine cinquains in the current issue of MET, which are included on a page following three of his tanka.
