We have?

Um . . .

That must be what just went flying over my head.  I didn't get it.

I see that there are two topics (at least) where the difference of haiku and senryu are discussed.

Also there may be confusion between what constitutes nature i.e. is it with humans or are we separate?

Use of pronouns etc...


From the other haiku/senryu discussion there is an impressive array of articles on haiku with humor, by both Western and Japanese commentators: http://www.thehaikufoundation.org/forum_sm/new-to-haiku-free-discussion/haiku-and-senryu/msg10239/?topicseen#msg10239

Enjoy! ;-)

all my best,

Is this haiku, senryu, verse, or something else...?

Detroit summer
sunlight stops at the windows

or

among the sunlit wrecks   crows of Kesennuma

There's a wonderful haiku sequence appearing in Lakeview International Journal of Literature and Arts Vol.1, No.2 August 2013 called Kesennuma.  The issue should come out on August 1st.
:)

warm regards,
