Two Senryu

Senryu On anvil of life Man is fixed to conform To society´s norm Senryu Hammer on hot steel Yields as softest of butter Forever a horse shoe

Unique theme on the art of metal forming - the first senryu states "anvil" where man is molded and the second "horse shoe" from hammered steel. Very good and artistic write!
