Senryu
Morality
Like birds on a wire
Praying to embrace some light
Will we watch and learn

Senryu are 3-line, unrhymed Japanese poems (often 5-7-5 syllables) focusing on human nature, irony, and humor, rather than nature. Known as "human haiku," they offer witty, sometimes cynical snapshots of daily life and human flaws.
