Bright Stars 7: An Organic Tanka Anthology

by M. Kei

You hold in your hands the final volume of Bright Stars, An Organic Tanka Anthology. The year's experiment is finished. Our aesthetic of 'akarui'-of bright, energetic, experimental tanka has stimulated old poets to try new things, or to dare to submit things they thought would never see print. New poets who thought they would never fit in the tanka world have published in our pages. Tanka is beginning to develop an avant garde with a younger, fresher, more urban perspective. When poets and readers want something new and different, when they have read everything there is to be read about tanka and desire to be stimulated anew, the seven volumes of Bright Stars, containing seven thousand poems, will be waiting for them. Bright Stars will continue to shine through the years to guide literary adventurers on a magical journey.
