  1. There's something completely deadpan about this that captures the non-partisan malaise, the exact political environment in which we live. Also, the poem gives the old expression–gone to the dogs–new meaning.

  2. Thanks everyone for the great comments! You have encouraged me to consider painting a haiga using this senryu. Maybe it will be ready in time for the next election season — I have a feeling it will still be current!

  3. Another interesting information and great. I will share with my friends the same reference. Really thank you sharing this, hope the new share more and more from you. Really thank you.
