A ‘Magnetic Poem’ tanka
smooth operator
she is cool, hot, alluring
rockin' out with style
confident and impressive
lady believes her power
Notes
- This is the 2nd time that I made use of the ‘Mustache Set’ on the Magnetic Poetry website;
- I deliberately chose this set because this poem was written for International Women’s Day 2021;
- I wanted to write a poem about a confident woman with a set of words designed to describe confident men;
- #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021;
- I again opted for a tanka, rather than a haiku;
- I’ve really been in a tanka groove recently;
- I found the featured image after writing the poem; it did not inspire the poem.

Thank you for contributing to #IWD2021! I love that you chose words normally used to describe men and used them to describe a confident woman. Of course, I’ve never heard a man described a ‘alluring’ but who knows…
I think perhaps the mustache could be alluring (from the perspective of the magnet set). Or – a smile (smile is also a word in that set).
A smile and an honest pair of eyes can certainly be, but we don’t tend to use that word to refer to men do we? It’s interesting!
True. True.
Awesomely done tribute. It’s rocking good. Cool 😎 thank you for writing this poem.
🤘
A good poem for a good occasion David, with a set much at odds with the intent, but you managed it so well.
Thanks, Deb. It struck me as a somewhat ironic challenge for the day. 🙂
Very nicely done, David.
Thanks so much, Dolly ❤
You are very welcome, David.
I was worried for some reason when I saw the image before the poem, plus the first two lines… but YEAH! this rocks David. 🤟

I like how you’ve given a positive spin to that term. (K)
I’m just glad I could make this poem work without giving its heroine a mustache 😉
I was just reading an article about drag kings…
Great post David! Thank you.
Thank you, Filipa❣️
Yours,
David
