    We need more tankas with long words we haven’t heard of!

    Sorry to be the one to break the news, but by admitting the term into your life, you may already have brought ruin on your Friday.
    I just hope it doesn’t spread to more generalised Arithmophobia, otherwise Monday the 15th could be a double whammy.
    Stay strong!

    I’ll bet you’ve been waiting a while to pull out that word, James. Mission accomplished!

      Genuinely only discovered it on Friday but as soon as I counted the syllables I knew a haiku or a tanka would be the way to go.

    I’ll take a bakers dozen on a Friday over any crumby old Monday. Every day of the week.

        Any weekday, never a cake walk. But Friday- here- was Show Day. (Official paid holiday.) So that felt like high tea.

    Friday Is Friday no matter when it falls
    Big words don’t scare me I used to live with a black cat. if he crossed my path in the dark I tripped over him. We both learned something
