swing
jazz type
to and fro
go the other way
sway

Senryu: 5-7-5 ( Haiku with people and their emotions/feelings as a topic)
.
we all need someone
love, the grandest emotion
a reason to live
.
Poem:
.
along came the Coronavirus
delivered to man by the God Osiris
mostly it picked on the elderly
those who were compromised medically
Communist China was the original source
their deception added to the eventual course
the WHO added more misery to the woes
but, the free world were formidable foes
mitigation was begun by social isolation
economies paralized by the duration
in some arenas it was politics as usual
the far left proved themselves very delusional
eventually with scientific and human resolve
the Covid-19 pandemic was finally solved

reality
does exist
cannot be argued
what is happening now
actuality

Tanka: 5-7-5, 7-7

afraid to emote
someone may laugh at me
stuff unknown feelings
a life lived in confusion
was it love or lust ? ? ?

Poem:
.
chaos ruling
politics above common sense
who do they think they are fooling
can anyone see through the pretence
police action, conflict, a war by any name
always has the other side to blame
kind thoughts dissipating into thin air
real compassion is truly rare
words arranged and rearranged like a flower bouquet
too many choices, like on a Swedish buffet
a literal smorgasbord ending with a chocolate fountain
the next challenge always a bigger, higher mountain
was there anyone who knew what
or was it just another rhyming couplet
the poem is always forcing the rhyme
while our lives are running out of time
it is only a problem, if you make it one
if anything at all makes sense, you have already won
