Senryu Poems
#senryu
Senryu is a traditional form of Japanese poetry, often referred to as 'human haiku'. Like haiku, senryu are short poems, comprising of only three lines. The first and last lines of a senryu should have five syllables and the middle line should have seven. Unlike haiku, senryu have a predominant theme of humans (physical or psychological) or human artefacts, and often have no references to the natural world.

Senryu
Endless summer heat
In January when cars won’t start
I’ll dream of summer.
One by one
Rose petals fall like old dreams
Heartache is your name.
Whirling dust
On summer empty lane
Melancholy.
Endless summer heat
In January when cars won’t start
I’ll dream of summer.
One by one
Rose petals fall like old dreams
Heartache is your name.
Whirling dust
On summer empty lane
Melancholy.

I had gotten used
To being invisible*
And then you saw me
*NOT A SUPERPOWER
To being invisible*
And then you saw me
*NOT A SUPERPOWER

Goosebumps in my bed
At night when I nakedly
Crave the warmth of you
At night when I nakedly
Crave the warmth of you

Poet's Blood (senryu)
I am right-handed
although in everything else
I am left-handed.
although in everything else
I am left-handed.
