so thanks to google I've finally figured out what genre of poetry my scribblings belong to.. apparently there's a more specialized terming called the jisei (Ž«�¢) for poems that share themes common to mine, literally meaning ones of resignation / farewell.. and as to how popular they are in japan, no idea.. but you won't be finding any books on them in Bobst anytime soon for sure.. but then again never was one for mainstream anyway..
