Notes About The Poem

I was sitting in the truck while Cody handled something for me inside the store..A lady came across the parking lot with a pair of shoes on like these..Sara

She Walked

she walked stiff legged
balancing with difficulty...
wearing stilettoes

Have never understood why women would torture themselves so. Harry suggested it must be like walking on a tight rope... I agree! Love and hugs, Jack xox

The primary difference between haiku & senryu is TONE, a senryu is often witty or satirical & unlike haiku, senryu do not include a kireji (cutting word), and do not generally include a kigo, or season word. Having man in the write doesn't necessarily make the 3 lines a senryu..above you have written a theme appropriate for a senryu BUT with an attempt at a cutting word [difficulty] which breaks the write into 2 parts, a common haiku format..so for me this is more haiku-like

IF you tweaked it a wee bit you could push it diffently one way or the other [you MUST stay in the present tense] [the child walks/ stiff-legged across the floor /in stilettoes] diffinetely a senryu now because its FUNNY & 1 part not 2
