Join us on a journey through 21st Century politics... We love the
traditional Japanese haiku format of 17 syllables on 3 lines: 5-7-5. It
is very symmetrical, terse and disciplined. However, these are not your
great grandfather's haiku. This is Modern American Haiku. We do keep the
fundamental format, but that's all. For one thing, we give them titles,
which we believe helps the reader focus on the punch in each haiku.
Second, there is word play. Third, there is the extra dimension of the
images in which the haiku are embedded or by which they are framed. We
believe the reader will be amazed at how well the illustrations deepen
the haiku. Ted and Patricia
