So, people; I've seen two different spellings
for this type of poetry.  Help me out here.
Is it senyru or senryu.  Thanks for the help.

VL,
  Senryu: a Japanese form of seventeen syllables in three lines. Unlike the haiku, a senryu doesn't have to refer to a season.
There are five syllables on the first line, seven syllables on the second line, and five syllables on the last line.
I hope this helps, I enjoy your poem!KEEP WRITING!

"on-line addiction"
It seems everything on-line can be addicting, but none as much as the visits to The Corner Pub Wonderful Senryu
