Excellent

This political senryu, What Happened to Us?, uses a 5-7-5 format and asks the question that seems to have swept the nation in the past couple of years.

I really like this. It is very eye appealing, and, most importantly, a great message. I like your title; I love how you spaced your poem; I love the black background; great artwork. But, like I mentioned ... a great 5-7-5 message! I wish you the very best in the contest. This is a great entry!

Anger only has sad consequences and calm negotiations always win the day and the hearts and minds of the people, ruling with kindness and empathy is commendable, but not everyone is listening, poignant words here, love Dolly x

I liked what your poem is talking about. You say a lot about what is going on these days in our country with just a few words...very powerful words. The picture you chose fits the words very well.
