Ok, since I am moderating in dark  How many can write a dark senryu? Any takers? C'mon . . .  ________________________________________ Format: A senryu is a three line Japanese poem structurally similar to haiku. It is unrhymed and the subject is based human nature. line 1 - 5 syllables line 2 - 7 syllables line 3 - 5 syllables If willing, please post in Dark as senryu challenge or something like that.

Correction: Haiku entails imagery based on nature or has a nature theme. Senryu has the same format, but no nature theme.  |

Thanks Ali - always wondered about that - got that from a website, was unsure myself. I figured it meant human nature, as in self. |

i kinda figured you meant 'em to be separate, but i sorta took the lead from yours so i thought it might make more sense if i put it there.  |
