Haiku X 2
Teardrops burst their banks
Brimming over as a flood
Of liquid emotion.

Skinless sausages
Nakedly flaunt their bodies
In the frying pan.

Thank you Stu.
I went through a phase of what I call orientalism, and dashed out dozens of Haiku and a few Senryu, before getting bored. It was then I decided to spice them up by adding a dash of humour.
honestly, the juxtaposition between the two had me laughing. both are excellent,

Stu,
Thanks for the link to humankindjournal.
I scanned it quickly, then went back and read it again.
The question is whether or not I have enough material that would meet their criteria, but it certainly has given me something to mull over.
I'll keep you in the loop if anything develops.
Regards,
Dave
