Dale,
I didn't get the irony either; even though I know your views on the 5-7-5 form. I have also wrote haiku/senryu with 5-7-5 structure on purpose for the same reason - now I realise that nobody got the joke but me
It may be a stretch, but if you had put the amount of syllables in each line at the end of the line in parenthesis I would probably got the irony. Alternatively you could call it 'Race Senryu' and make each line 6 syllables - just a thought.
Cheers for the read,
Mark
I'm from a mixed race family, my father ran the 100m and my mother ran the marathon
yeah I know — don't worry I'm finished.
