I short-sheet the bed
then forget
Like haiku, senryu offer a moment of realization in a single breath. While haiku are about nature, senryu are about human nature.
To learn more about haiku and senryu, I recommend listening to Haiku Chronicles, a podcast hosted by Donna Beaver and Alan Pizzarelli. In this episode they specifically discuss senryu. I love listening to these podcasts when I walk.
My favorite place to read senryu is in the on-line journal Prune Juice.
Happy day after April Fools’ Day!
