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.

Who Knew
The is the peeved look you make
when you are rushing out the door
and cannot find the matching pair of panties
then taking a selfie for a download
with a specific color request
and praying it goes unnoticed-
well did it?

We dwell in low notes
The G string’s rattle and buzz
Suggests a loose nut
BASS DESIRES

Drown
swimming in your eyes
will be the only ocean
I'd gladly drown in
will be the only ocean
I'd gladly drown in
