Senryū

[acatsoclever]

As wisdom comes
So too do memories
Better forgotten

Only a fool
Assumes foolishness
It's all relative

Senryū are similar in form to haiku, but they are about people and human nature, and don't have to mention seasons. They're harder to write, methinks, and it feels like trying to come up with clever proverbs rather than poetry.
