There was a senorita who ate
chips and Velveeta who’s sweeta
and happy she did eat her!

Oh Lord has it come to this
that we must strive to fail; to rhyme
is not a sin like gluttony.

Gluttony is apropos, as this is most rhymes that I have ever packed into a tiny poem. Burp...

Chris,

Of course, anything goes. This is an online magazine,so to speak,and since someone did it here it must make it a Senryū, right? Ipsp facto, so is yours. Ever read "Gulliver's Travels"? The only problem is that yours rhymes. chedder-better. It would be better if you wrote

"to rhyme

That depends on what the definition of "is" is.

Thanks for playing,
