Ennui
The Than-bauk is a three-line poem, conventionally an epigram, each line being of four syllables, and the rhyme being on the fourth syllable of the first line, the third syllable of the second one, and the second of the third. This has been called "climbing rhyme" and is characteristic of Burmese verse.
The following is my poem in Than-bauk:
Ennui
When tears become
more the sum of
night, numb is love.
