Sometimes in this life

Fake smiling is all you got

A senryu must be exactly 3 lines.
Like a Haiku, a senryu must follow the 5-7-5 format:
The first line must have 5 syllables.
The second line must have 7 syllables.
The third line must have 5 syllables.
A senryu focuses on humans and usually contains irony.
It usually focuses on human nature.
It is not written about nature or the seasons.
A senryu does not have to rhyme.
