Caged

I’m the only one
that isn't a lab monkey 
yet I'm caged too -
loneliness abounds

Susan, I really hate to see experiments with lab animals as I love animals so much. Very profound thoughts in that second verse. Loneliness IS a cage and it's not easy to break free. Congratulations on your win in John's contest! Love, Carolyn

Monkey around with cages and you can write pages of poetry, literally. Only sages live outside cages and you might be one.

ps It's really hard to know what to think about man and monkeys. I sure hope we can understand one day all the scientific evidence on evolution as it relates to creation as the Christian knows it to be.

wow, you did a very profound second senryu, and the first one is really cute except it needs the picture with it so people know you are talking as a monkey! Yes, let's post our poems in the morning. Not much activity going on here. but I guess I'll post mine (if I can wake myself up this morning!) Hope your migraine is gone. LUv,Andrea
