I'm now addicted to your senryu. Another well written piece that highlights social waste.

This is why senryu is effective. Very observant Govind, this quality is crucial to write good haiku and senryu.

Nice catch Govind, Put it on twitter and send it to the mayor's office. Incompetent politicians.
