Seven Variations On the Opening Line of a Senryu

seven variations on the opening line of a senryu “We seek the teeth to match our wounds”. Kenneth Tynan sometimes what we seek is not necessarily the final answer sometimes what we seek is the unfound, the profound beyond dreams and hopes sometimes what we seek is the truth and nothing but the awful sad truth sometimes what we seek is what we were prescribed not what we wanted sometimes what we seek is bigger than our bellies bigger than our minds sometimes what we seek is a different equation to age old problems sometimes what we seek is inside us all the time waiting to be found. 27.2.2010
