Midnitesun, This is a cute poem, with a good idea. It could be improved by making the period at the end of the first line an emdash. Bobby |

It is indeed time to turn such things around... so many are speaking out in various ways... thank you, Kacy. |

I agree and this is right to the point, perfectly done. Beauty fades from life when human rights are ignored and love is lacking Love, Margherita |

fine 'Senryu'.... also (unfortunately) likely rather 'timely' with respect to recent events in Virginia! Applause! |

Like the book I just finished. I am sickened, REVOLTED and SICKENED the way he assaulted that girl just as she was going into labor. (Sunshine, I'll write you in a bit) even worse because the culprit got away from accounting for what he did, the heinous, brutal, heartless and bestial savagery with which he snuffed out not just one life but two is indescribably appalling and Horrible ... Had I been on Randal's team, I would have hit Larsen with as many counts as Federal and State statutes and a creative interpretation there of I could imagine. (This all has to do with Yesterday's Love). The past, of course, can not be changed ... Well, Sunshine could re do the ending. But a fitting way to end it would have been a very generous settlement, a very generous settlement, to have been awarded to the families and a public apology be made to them by the governor of the state. And that's just for starters Okay, Okay, it's only a story, but ... I'll get over it ... Southern Cross |

Good write , I don't know enough about senryu to comment on the form but the thought is apt. a good commitee can decimate communication. |

I'm back for a 2nd. perusal of this 'write'... rather critically important thought for the "Runaway American Dream" in our times! |
