monostitched

My own, albeit somewhat limited, understanding is that there are; doors, windows, skylights and trapdoors, secret passage ways, tunnels that turn into transdimensional wormholes - as well as; quantum jump appliances, wheels, skates, rocket propulsion system options... all of which can be built into a haikai's inner-space vehicle itinerary.

What do you think of my own first effort at a monostich (single line poem) - does it work ok? Is it haiku, senryu, zappai, or is it something else - you know, when it's at home?

Is this a better one, or just different?

This is a 'sketch from life' (shasai) job. You know, directly experienced. I was out in the wilds, in the darkling nightime, with a digital Kodak, a while back - shooting nocturnal wildlife.

Or this way up?

Trust me, I'm just a tadpole at this modern one-liner business - advice is most welcome.
