Strange little poem. Your senryu qualifies for the challenge. You have the 5-7-5 syllable count format well done and it has an interesting theme.

A well done 5-7-5 formatted poem about the status of man in God's eyes. I iteration with God and hills reinforces to dignity of all living things. Man is a disappointment. Sad but true.

I don't really understand who or what "hills" is but I do understand that the point you are making is that God is unhappy with man .. I am unsure what the meaning is of the third line.
I think it should be "asks" or "asked" rather than "ask"
You do have correct syllable count for your 5-7-5

A lovely poem that's well written and well delivered. It flows nicely and reads easy. Lovely art work do go with the poem. I love the distinction you make.

Perhaps I should read some of your other posts to understand your style. I'm rating as a four primarily due to a pet peeve of mine concerning author notes. If you need extensive notes to explain your meaning, then the post itself just doesn't work. Bill

Hiya,
This again is another piece that is disjointed. Where do women sit, women give birth to man and are the home makers so are you suggesting men are humans and women are not,
This seems more like preaching than a piece of poetry that is easy to understand.

This wonderful poem leaves me with the impression that mankind is far from being humane. We tout the scientific advancements of medicine, but we have, at the same time, taken the "care" out of healthcare. I am also left with the thought of how mankind itself is a moot point to God's vision of the universe. Since many men reject God and His plan for us, we stand a very good chance of being rejected as needed in His plan. Great write!

You are right. It does seem like most men don't act like what is supposed to be human. That is with love and understanding and aid for all. God should be angry at us.
There is a specific haiku the is for religious topics. I think this poem falls into that genre.

Good morning,
Very interesting verse. You managed some great insight in so few words. Your writing style is different from most of what I read. Good job.

This concept hills asking God a question is a little strange for me to comprehend...though, our Creator, should really have no problem with answering ....though, believe this is an incredible poem, & believe the second & third line answers the question.
