Wonderful to see your translated senryu - Soseki's translated poetry is hard to find. I read most of his work where available, but I am yet to read 'The Tower of London'.

Cool. I look forward to the poems.

One way to make sense of this world.

That's beautiful Kat.

Nice to see the people and poetry I've enjoyed mostly from twitter, some are new discoveries. My very first senryu on sm from 2021 feels appropriate:
