#Polar Bear Cup Senryu - I barely made it to this feast

Well then.
Christmas has passed safely...
I can finally hear the footsteps of the end of the year.

(What about the big cleaning, or the big cleaning?)

That's what I'm saying.

Heh heh heh...
It's like, I can't hear you, right?

My knee is in trouble, is this the end of my life?

During work the other day.
I was cleaning the bathroom.
I twisted my body to the right while sitting...

Crack!

"Ouch!!"

Oh no!
Oh no!!
Oh no!!!

A sharp pain shot through the right side of my right knee!
I couldn't move while crouched down!

Even when I tried to stand up,
sharp pain!
Even when I tried to sit down,
sharp pain!

(Wow, seriously. I can't move a single step, can I?)


Hmph.
Heh heh heh...

I see, this is what they call that.

[In a tight spot]

Should I call an ambulance?
No, it's impossible to even reach my smartphone.

Just like this...
Just like this, will I...
end my day today?

On Christmas Eve Eve.

It's snowing like crazy outside.
The heater in the living room doesn't reach the bathroom much.
In this cold studio apartment.

That's right.
Let's cheer up.
I'll sing 'One Room Disco'.

(Disco disco♪)

Just like this...
Just like this, will my life...
end here?

(Disco disco♪)

Ah...
Ah, man.
Giving up on life so soon...

Like hell I will, you jerk!!

When I tried to put my butt on the floor...

Snap!

"Ouch!!"

Even more intense pain.

(This is bad!!)

Wait a second.
Calm down, me.
Probably...

If I sit down, something truly irreversible will happen.
I have that feeling.

I decided to stand up slowly.

"Gnnn... it hurts... nuooooo!!!"

Tsukune stood up!

How sad, Santa is Mom, confessed to me

That was the winter of my fourth year in elementary school.
I had...
a younger brother in first grade and a younger sister in kindergarten.

I said,

"Santa is just Mom, right?"

while saying that,
(But maybe he really exists... Japan is like this, and there are no chimneys. But in foreign countries... maybe he exists... heart pounding)

So that's the kind of cute kid she was...

And then,
one day, Mom
whispers to me.

"You're big enough now that you probably know, but..."

"Santa is actually Mom."

"Keep it a secret from your younger sister and brother, okay?"

"(!?) ...Ah, I knew that."

Tsukune pretends to be calm on the spot.

Tsukune feels down in her own room.

Waking up at 4, enjoying note, I'm late

Lately...
I've been going to bed early and waking up early.

I go to bed at 10
and wake up around 3:30...

Since I couldn't go back to sleep,
I did a lot of morning activities.

I wrote morning pages,
played the piano,
and read and wrote on note.

That day, since I had posted
an article about my blunder senryu the day before...

The comment section is so lively,
reading and replying
is even more fun than usual...

Oh no!
I'm past the time I need to leave for work!

Yay!
I'm so glad I could participate!
Thank you to everyone in every direction!!

Senryu...
(Setting aside whether this is actually a senryu or not)
is actually more fun than I thought, isn't it?
