Hello. Overall good shot at this Senryu. Not an easy poem to achieve. Good picture you attached though. The use of the suck job as choice of words at least for me didn't have the justice I was looking for. Good luck and cheers.

This is very funny in its truth. I am often (Gee, it is often) making up for bad behavior by cleaning and toiling. Guess I should stop complaining about housecleaning.

I really enjoyed this poem. I have to agree helping out after a dust up is the way to go. Great flow, imagery, and all around job. Great job n good luck.

Funny and cleverly written poem that fits the senryu poem form. The picture fits well as one is not sure who you're talking about if it wasn't there. Job well done. Good luck in your contest..

    Thanks so much and you make a good point. I toiled over whether or not to use "his" or "him" somewhere. I have altered satori now to "time for his suck job".
    Much appreciated.

Yes, very good. In a tiny space you have conveyed a great deal (men can't verbalize their feelings, so find other ways to grovel). Like the "suck" pun.
