Editor’s Note (A Chinese Five-Element Perspective)
Senryu and haiku are two sides of the same coin
reflecting the two sides of the moon. W hile one side
reflects our idiosyncracies, the other focuses on
Nature. While they might share shape and size,
energetically the forms are different. W hile haiku are
upper-chakra centered, senryu usually reflect the
energy of the lower chakras, namely, the sacrum, sexual
and solar plexus. M any think senryu have to be
scatological or pertaining to the first two energetic
centers. Senryu, especially when they fall into the
“psychological haiku” arena, can resonate at the heart
and perhaps upwards, but not usually. Sometimes it’s
hard to categorize one or the other because both
genres meet at the area of our equator, or waist.
Psychological haiku often fall into this category, also
known as “serious senryu.”
In Chinese five element philosophy, the lungs and
colon are considered sister and brother relating to the
metal (or air) element, or realm of the spirit. The lungs
receive the energy of heaven or inspiration which relate
more to haiku, as haiku in general have a more refined
quality. H aiku have a “higher” energy but that doesn’t
mean “better.”
Senryu, in general, often have a cleansing effect. They
can release tension (or create it). They can be comical
or shed light on the shadow we prefer not to see or
write about. Just as the job of the large intestine is to
rid the body of waste, it also has other functions such
5
as mineralization. In fact, the metal element relates to
gems that are found underground while lungs, the
organs of breath, allude more to jewels. It has been
said that Heaven materializes inside earth through
gems giving our planet its spiritual quality. If we as
hum ans didn’t have sufficient minerals, we wouldn’t
survive, nor would anything else on our planet.
M inerals are responsible for our juiciness, the body
electric.
The metal element also relates to networking,
electricity, connecting. We all want to be inspired—
inspiration is that unseen juice, or
chi
, that gives life
meaning. The other side of inspiration is grief. W hen
we feel disconnected from Spirit or from each other,
we grieve and thus find ways to feel inspired so that we
may move on. Haiku can definitely offer inspiration as
it imparts to us the beauty of Nature, but humorous
senryu can offer what few psychologists can.
Senryu is a way of connecting with the human race.
Senryu can be gossip— a way of sharing information
with and about each other. O r it may just be a way of
reporting about the condition of the human race and
the drama we encounter or witness everyday.
Humor is cleansing; it’s necessary. Take the Dali Lama
as a case in point. The guy is often heard joking even
though he carries the burden of the Tibetan people on
his shoulders. And then there’s the legendary Jewish
sense of humor— a survival tool indeed.
Perhaps writing senryu is a way to improve our haiku
6
— it clears the channels, cuts away dead wood,
removes the dross. M ore of you seem to be developing
your sense of senryu; it’s a form that is finally catching
on. Without senryu to balance haiku, it would be a dry
world.
An an added bonus, senryu can prime the pump for
better haiku because, in following the laws of Nature,
the old must be removed before the new can manifest.
As we move through the Kali Yuga, we’re going to
need to let go of how things are— the earth is going
through big changes as are we. For those of you who
follow astrology, when Pluto entered Capricorn a short
while ago, the structures we counted upon (like banks
and other institutions) started to crumble. As W all
Street executives turn to shamanism and meditation
practices to keep their wits — maybe they’ll turn to
senryu. Stranger things are happening, like the prospect
of poets being invited to the W hite House and an
organic garden on the W hite House lawn.
