Fictional

SENRYU is a Japanese poetic form similar to haiku but focuses on human nature and it doesn't require a season word (kigo). It's written in 17 syllables OR LESS. No rhymes but alliteration, personification, metaphor, etc ... are okay. It can be humorous or serious. It goes back to late 18th century Japan. *** source: wikipedia *** collection of senryu

Thank you very much for taking the time to read and review my poem.
