	Tanka Essay
		It seems the preference for ending Japanese poetry in these early days was with the 5-7-7 onji pattern; however, as stated earlier, 5-7-5 was often used as a substitute and was equally acceptable in terms of aesthetics and appreciation.
		Actually, what we have here is a Choka composed by combining a Katauta in the form of a question with a Tanka poem in amplifying expression.
		This is considered to be a Choka, but within this Choka, one can find evidence that the early Japanese poets were not averse to combining poetic forms; so long as the basic unit of structure remained within the 17-19 onji range.

	Choka On It: What is Choka? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Choka are traditionally written by a single author, but in order to go huge we’re borrowing an idea from a later Japanese poetry form, known as renga, by having multiple authors write two lines each.
		On the choka main page, you can (and should) add to the poem by typing two lines: one seven syllables, and one five syllables.
		In your addition to the choka, the first line should be seven syllables, the second line should be five syllables.

		That brings up question #1 for Professor Del. Is the rule of the choka that the lines are to be 575 or 577 onji EXACTLY...
		Now Cathy...while your poem is lovely in content, the problem noticed by Daniel is quite distracting and detracts from the poem grammatically, aesthetically, and structurally.
