Brilliant senryu blue, fantastic job.

Thanks so much BR. I truly do appreciate it.

[Pryde Foltz]

A huge score on form and expression. It sounds and looks terrific. Love all the doubled letters and l's. There is a seductive and deadly sinuousness to this one. Brava.

Thank you for the kind words and your attention to detail. I do appreciate it.

Haikus are very difficult to write (in my opinion) since they require such calculation such that a very large idea should fit into a total of merely 17 syllables. It requires a good sense of word-choice, thought, and of course, brevity. I believ you have handled this big of an issue with precision and a lot of brevity. A wonderful endeavor.

What a lovely review Gleb. I am touched by your praise.

i love the brevity of haiku and senryu--but not all poets are able to really pack such a wallop into the short space...some of these leave a reader just hanging....feeling there was incomplete thought.

not when you do them Anne.
i felt the sharp blade of what that drug can do...and it is definitely an illicit affair that will cost dearly.

and it certainly is a serial killer.

Thank you so much jacob, your comments mean so very much. I am pleased you saw the pithy side of me. I sometimes hide that a bit too well. In real life I am loquacious and my family often claims I pontificate (an accusation I vehemently refute).
