Quick break-up Senryus.
Pick one to quickly, cut that
relationship cord:
I'm sorry, What'd you say?
I can't hear you (confused look)
- we’re breaking up.
You’re the guy that
every girl at our school wants
- it's their lucky day.
It's time that we took
our relationship to the
previous level.
I still cherish the
initial misconceptions
I had about you.

(a silly series of Senryus)
It’s time to cram for
final exams, again, so
here we go, mug up.
My mind, coffee dark,
drifts in academic dreams,
—think roiling oceans.
A ‘mandatory’
society meeting? You’re
not the boss of me.
I’ll shun or eschew,
if I want too, sidestepping,
like a tap dancer.
I'm not lazy - I'm
high tech and in energy
saving mode right now.
It’s a pointed and
conscious decision—I’ll do
me and you do you.

More break-up Senryus
to quickly, subtly cut that
relationship cord:
You’re a guy, I’m
a girl... it turns out we’re
just too different!
Look, It’s not you – it’s
me - turns out I don’t like
you much anymore.
You smile at him,
and then say: "You've helped
realize I'm gay."
Allegory time!
You're a turkey, ok? And
I'm going on a diet.

My prayers answered
I value the gift of life
Rewards of nature
Flags drift softly still
The stars emerge, bringing joy
Light shines vivid

The Queen's done her course
Now she studies her new maps
For a new conquest
Her inner fire
It will continue to grow
as will her Kingdom

Moon mantled in clouds
From it falls tears of Heaven
Lotus kissed with dew
Barefooted, she walks
A lithesome body in white
Rose cheeked, tear-brimmed eyes
Her skirts made of mist
as she twirls and piroettes
and reaches for you
Her sleeves are water
They wave high, above her head
Drops become crystals
As she shines so bright
Crowned with cassia-blossoms
on her silk black hair
But why does she cry?
She hears the music of life
and yearns for the flame
The flick of her wrist
The lake murmurs its sad song
And she's reminded
As the petals rain
In hemp or rich brocade
We are like vapors

Feeling so relaxed
I feel cleansed by my sad past
Flowers waved relieved
On my chest are seeds
From it, thorns of hatred grow
and they plague my soul
But now I do see
That I really must let go
of all my grudges
It is a poison
That I've been feeding my soul
And it's not worth it
I will now forgive
make peace and try to move on
the best that I can
I'll let my body
be a clean positive seed
from which light will sprout
