Senryu

James Michael

Came across a rock

Looked down at it for a bit

Seemed just like my brain!

    maybe, we share that same
    obstinate, brain
    cos mine too, watches-on
    blankly
    as other's, all around me
    morph
    tempered, by the weathering
    of Time
    into carbonised deposits
    of wisdom's, worth...
    (a wonderfully relatable shorty
    like how you kept to senryu's origins
    by matching your topic
    to your chosen form and wording, as well)
    thanks for sharing
    and Happy New Year! dear poet

      My brain cells have been flushed down the toilet with vomit from too much booze!

      Thanks as always for reading my splatterings. 5 7 5s are always fun to write. Happy days to you as well.

      Great 575 - reminds me of one of mine:
      a rock shining wet
      unseen by upward gazing
      stumble in the dark

        Thanks Mikey for dropping by. You do have a gift for the shorties.

          Thanks James - sadly I don't have much time to write work of any length - art takes first place and I'm currently busy with commissions on the go.
