Sisyphus of Night
the moon
carries the weight of the sun
forever in dark
alone
losing its light with each morn

Hey, I'm Oatmeal Joey Arnold, and I love the book of the bear that tried to give the moon his hat for a birthday and I loved that book as a kid and I love your art and I draw and write too.

The moon's job is a lonely one and a long one:) Bringing light to the dark and delivering our tides:)

This is a cool combination of poetry and art. I've never heard of Chofu, but now I know what it is. Nice work!

Thanks Negativer. It is a rather recent addition to syllable count poetry and so it makes sense you haven't heard of it. It was invented ...to my knowledge, on writer's cafe. It is rather challenging but can create some interesting effect.
