Good 5-7-5 Senryu poem, proper syllable count.
Well selected accompanying picture.
Presented in a clear bright setting.

Well done. Good luck. Frankeddy

Yep. You nailed 'em. The big grief act, which is really a bit of enjoyable pantomime - and an excuse to wear that little black number, and the high heels.

Your poem is in excellent syllable count/form
good alliteration and commentary in plastic people/prate
strong satori line - you are very insightful as I have seen more "plastic" behavior at funerals than I care to remember :-) Brooke

This is a sombre read for such a tiny poem, but it creates a powerful image within your carefully selected words. Your structure looks fine and should do well in this competition.

a rather strong indictment of people. but, I don't find it out of order in the least. a lot of truth in it. quite true that many at a funeral are hiding a silly grin behind their hands pretending to sob as though they are grieving over someone they hardly know. a strong entry I believe. well done, mikey
