Hi Debbie,
so right, bad taste never goes out of style... and I must say this wonderfully constructed senryu just made me smile at the humor of it... and that can't be a bad thing, right?
Not sure if it is a universal thing... but here in Australia we just celebrated another 'Pink Day' dedicated to those, their families who are or have gone through breast cancer... they have big Pink parties,breakfasts, lunches, any excuse to raise monies to fund further research... they sell Pink ribbons and well on that day, pretty much anything goes with the colour Pink... so I guess this fine poem could also sit as an advertisement and promotion of that day... no matter, well done and presented in any one's books.
With our thoughts we create,
well wishes to friends
who we hold close in our hearts,
James vx's.

Virtual 6 instead! You're right "bad taste" never goes out of style; meaning resonates within me... Wonderful meaning in such a short poem. Thanks for sharing and God Bless, Deb

Ironic poem. How can bad taste even go out of style when it is never in style.
This poem reminds me of the so many Afro-Americans I see with pink,green, blue and/or red hair dye/spray in their hair.
Thanks for sharing this. JW

Comment from Bellringer
Debbie: Nicely done commentary on styles, fads,etc. Here you're showing us that you consider a pink wig to be in "bad taste." However, another individual may see it as a way of exercising individualism or youthful rebellion. A pink wig may be great for a costume party or a musical entertainer--it's all in the eye of the beholder. Regards, Hector

Hi, Debbie,
"senryu (pink wig) is superior satirical poetry expressing a complete satire in
12 syllables. This work is based on a Japanese poetry form where economy and beauty of expression are highly prized.

Debbie;
-I like your writing very much as it is very humorous and quite satirical. It is to grammatically interconnected lines which are very full of imagery which is exquisitely expressive and humorously and vividly descriptive.
-The third line or set Tori give your writing an aha moment and sums up the relativity of your concept and topic.
-Thank you for sharing and posting and made a good Lord be with you always.

I think it was in during the 50's here for a while. I don't know because that is a bit before my time. Wow, it's been a while since I have said that. Mostly, I just say how young everyone looks--you understand I am sure~Debbie
