PRUNE JUICE
Journal of Senryu and Kyoka
Biannual Journal

PRUNE JUICE: Journal of Senryu and Kyoka is a biannual print and digital magazine dedicated to publishing and promoting fine senryu and kyoka in English. Senryu generally emphasize human foibles and frailties, usually satirically, ironically, humorously. Season words are not necessary nor usual in senryu. Kyoka have a different history than senryu; nevertheless, for modern kyoka in English, the definition is similar: a poem in the tanka form but with the satirical, ironic, humorous aspects of senryu. We are looking for fresh works, not clichéd poems. Wit is highly appreciated, as well as insight. We appreciate a wide range of both genres, from the gently humorous to the most wicked satire. Edited by Alexis Rotella.
