Face covered by soot

Yet he noticed not nor care

His heart in turmoil

Senryu

Senryu (also called human haiku) is an unrhymed Japanese verse consisting of three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables (5, 7, 5) or 17 syllables in all. Senryu is usually written in the present tense and only references to some aspect of human nature or emotions. They possess no references to the natural world and thus stand out from nature/seasonal haiku.

I enjoyed the way this played out. you did a great job of holding the "meat" of the poem for the end, and the payoff is in the comprehension of the reader afterwards. Great write.

Thank you for the great comment!
