Sunburn

Sonnet

Bend the light

just so

above, below,

left and right.

Focus in,

each ray

trapped on its way

from the sun.

Bright

spot

turn

white

hot

and burn.

Tanka

Bend the light just so

above, below, left and right,

focus in each ray.

Trapped on its way from the sun,

bright spot, turn white hot and burn.
