    Congratulations you wone the one that counts. Don't bet on the poetry as a loss. Keep it up. I loved the cleverness of this Senryu how you stayed in the boundaries by excluding the marginal comments and the cynical last line reporting that you lost the poetry contest and adding one syllable too many to the last line it fit so well. Magnificent!! Keep it up a fave
