Salem's Shivering Senryu { A Triad Senryu } Poem by Frank James Ryan Jr...fjr

Salem's Shivering Senryu { A Triad Senryu }



A Modern-Contemporary Senryu with the employment
of Traditional Haikus Syllabic adherence(5-7-5)



The Wood-Held Blade
Across The Jugular Vein
Of The Last Victim

Salem's Court of Death
To All They Deemed as Witches
Slaughtered One By One

And The Townsfolk Cheered
As Each Head was Clamped and Slayed
And Held Up For Show

Sixteen-Twenty-Five
Twenty-One Innocent Souls
Died By Ignorance.
