Hi HGarvey. This is interesting. It definitely took me on a strange ride to discern how to read it properly. It finally clicked when I read the whole thing left to right then top to bottom like your example. Initially I thought I should read the three haikus on the left first. Also your second horizontal senryu caps would read 'poets hearts inspire poems poets' emotions love feelings; I don't know'. I'm pretty curious how these cap words fit in to your bigger picture as it's beyond me right now

Very inventive,not easy to create but very rewarding. A very similar form HGD to the 16th century one I recently came across and introduced here and have labelled 'crosswise' and included under the Shape format here.Rgds Brian & thanks for your very welcome comments
