She has a Lego mini figure set of her inner demons & collects heart-shaped stones: She likes that a lot. Then she throws them into water & waits.

There are two images here juxtaposed, the wren, the teeth clenched in a fist. That's juxtaposition. What deepens the ma though is ... why 28? What happened overnight? Why is the wren breathless? Who fucking knows?!

You have here an autumn kigo, no kireji. 1 scene, 1 phrase, 2 different objects. What makes it weird is the action (shaking) & the number (seven). Yes, it's a juxtap., but so much deepened. A bottle & magpies CAN coexist in a park. But shaking it, & SEVEN magpies? Well. That's where the ma is.

This is a wild conglomeration of musical allusion, a real image (basketball, sports) and a mental state. The kireji is borrowed from music, and as important to this as choice of layout. I know this leans heavily towards senryū, but for me it's a summer kigo, playing basketball outside.

I don't have a real kigo in there, and I don't have a real kireji, and two images juxtaposed? Not sure. It reads like a diary entry with something important crossed out... but there is a ton of ma. The crossed out horse mane alludes to an emotion of wildness tamed.

Sea gulls.
Water heaving less
in the far-off ocean,
more in the flotsam
he picked up for me.
