Senryu For Fun Poem by Michael Walkerjohn

Senryu For Fun

Rating: 4.0


I began to wright
a wright I did then begin
will this wright be right?

pages of white noise
an exhibition's mission
fly specs from pepper?

pigmentation's tone
cornbread replaces those whites
grandma's recipe!

racism is bust!
why the fuss over skin tone?
colour me cornbread!

no 'tool' is white; right?
only fools play with their 'tools'!
whites have smaller tools?

what must I do-do?
I must dada this dodo!
doda all the daze!

indentations etched
irritate soft, tender flesh
best not get an itch!

visible darkness
really hard for you to miss
unless you submerge!

es-cape is best kept
as if it, were coloured black
limitations git!

skin can be reversed
worse case; would it sparkle grey?
My thoughts; of course not!

nonsense I declare
reason for all Holidaze!
no apologizes!

fair ideas are nice
nice never won any race
forget second place!

demonstrations rage
when I try my very best
to quiet my pride

crippling ideas
does not seem to be ideal
weigh this conflict well!

root-beer floats once ruled
an assumption never proved
define assumption?

more grace filled waters
allow any boat great calm
until there is smoke!

mesmerizing sway
boats sail on their merry ways
into headwinds fly

desert palms are sweet
for their shade and pulp to eat
Desert Palms all suites!

nature expresses
an alchemy combining
artful fun and fear!

count any amount
any amount you may count
Is naught the amount?

impressions just do
what to you is clever too
never what it seems

in and out again?
a triple-double with fries?
go figure! Lets eat!
