Alvaro Carrasquel Gomez: two senryū

Alvaro Carrasquel Gomez

two senryū

 

Fallujah, 2003
the laments of mourners
for unearthed skeletons

 


 

sixty years later
he denounces
the renowned priest

 


Alvaro Carrasquel Gomez is a senryū poet, but he is also a short story writer of splatterpunk and extreme horror, and a cursed poet. From mid-2023, he has been passionately exploring senryū, haiku, haibun, and erotiku. His work has been published so far by Otoroshi Journal (as “Vampirlibido”), tsuri-dōrō—a small journal of haiku and senryu, Shadow Pond Journal, Cold Moon Journal, Failed Haiku, Poetry Pea, and Sakura Haiku Anthology. He lives in Santiago de los Caballeros de Mérida, Venezuela.
