A-Z Challenge: Waka

I love these little Japanese forms; they are just the kind of thing you want to write after a long, tedious day at work. A waka has 5 lines, grouped slightly more precisely than a tanka.

Statistics

The census form asks
age, job, orientation.
It does not ask much
important information.
Did you eat? Are you lonely?

This is my W for the A-Z Blogging Challenge 2022.  My theme is poetry – a form for every letter of the alphabet. V was villanelle.
