Great haiku/senryu! But could I possibly be prejudiced because it is about my alter-ego? (maybe a bit) It certainly captures the essence of "Edge." Thank you so much for this, it really made my day! Always, cat

Anything for you, my dear kitty cat. What did Edge think? ~Jess K. ----------------------- "Flying so high, trying to remember How many cigarettes did I bring along? When I get down, I'll jump in a taxi-cab Driving through London-town to cry you a song..." - Jethro Tull

Jess,

I always love your Japanese poems, you are cracking good at them. I daresay that you have nailed "Edge" here... Yummy dark poem, gulped it down, forgot to chew ;) Yours, ~Nina

Thankyou, Nina

It's one of the structures I almost understand! LOL I'm glad 'Edge' came through well - he seems to be quite the elusive character. Thanks for stopping in. ~Jess K. ----------------------- "Why worry? There should be laughter after pain. There should be sunshine after rain. These things have always been the same.
