better the spray than to have him stay, to create more of the same.

Another excellent senryu poem, samanyan. Your reference to a bomb and 'shot dead with a spray' eliminates any chance of it being a haiku, since is does not refer purely to nature. Still, your syllable count is correct and the poem is quite expressive, but still a senryu. Carl.

For us it can be bombs but for little creatures it can be a simply spray. In both cases the human mind is the key factor. We can spare man. We can also spare these little creatures. We do create an environment for these little creatures to breed on and then try to extinguish them from earth. Can't we keep our environment better for their less survival? This could be ideal.
