Seaweeds

dealing with humans oft leaves me feeling as though they are dried seaweeds cold of bright spirit clammy with the residue of having brushed life

this was an interesting one to view. your FIRST post. The second one reads more like a true senryu.. Quite the comparison with the human spirit!

I like both of the senryu's, but I love the second one. That is poetry at its very best. "having brushed life" . . . Yes!
