This pen is a knife
slitting the jugular of
suicidal writes.

    Great little senryu Chels Chels, I wonder why you put it in misc though since it screams out depression and suicide?

    It is very powerful and I think the title empowers it even more because once you understand the poem then read the title again it is like saying this will be the final thing this person ever writes.

    I love the way you used the pen like a knife, such a unique thing to see not just in a poem but to fit it into a senryu also.

    Loved it <3

    Wow! What a powerful senryu!!! It's deep and dark.... and I like that you chose to write about this subject in a senryu, because in such short words you portrayed the emotions and subject so well.

    I like how you compared your pen to a knife - it was an interesting touch, and how you're writing suicidal notes, as if letting out your emotions and pain through poetry.

    Love it!
