A very well-written Senryu. The mortician comes with a wonderful idea about burying the dead in crystal glass coffins, so they can continued to be seen after death.

Comment from Miss Sherry
This is so clever I just read it about six times. We are so solemn about death stuff, but this is morbid humor - I love it. I wish you the best in the competition! You nailed it with this one.

Comment from Thomas Bowling
I guess this is a modern day open casket or is it just for the viewing? This is an excellent contest entry and will do well in the voting booth. Contests are difficult to win. Good luck.

Comment from Yvon
If I had a sixer I would plant on you. But since I only can give you a measly 5 it must be because you are still alive. You made the thought of a funeral a little less bad.

Comment from Janice Canerdy
You have made excellent use of every syllable in this darkly
humorous and clever senryu about death. Your play on words is
the best I've seen lately.

Comment from Kerry Foley Robinson
Haha, That's really creepy. A great senryu entry. I do remember, Dean Kuch had a similar poem not too far back in regards to (glass coffins and remains to be seen) Hmm... Good luck! ~Kerry

I like your play on words. A very original subject for a Senryu poem. It should do well in the competition. Good luck and best wishes. Jen.

Comment from Mark D. R.
Your last line deserves the extra star! For me, it is not a good feeling to see an open casket - crystal clear is really morbid for me, but not for your contest entry. Your selected illustration is haunting. Did the mortician save money with his glass versus wooden coffin? LOL
Good luck in your entry.

Thank you Mark for your encouraging review and the special six star review. Not sure if the mortician saved any money on this. Funerals are all expensive today. haha.

Comment from SLMorrical
An interesting entry into the contest. Your title for your entry did catch my eye, I had to read. I like the picture, and it adds to the poem. I don't know if glass coffins is a good idea, but I guess you wouldn't have to have an open casket. Very well done. Good luck in the contest.
