haiku circus

Filed under: pre-06-2006 — David Giacalone @ 4:39 pm

We interrupt this occasionally too-serious weblog — and our crusade against the

5-7-5 haiku mythto point you to Haiku Circus, by Ken Sakamoto, “A comic strip

that combines drawings with haiku poetry (5-7-5 syllables).”







      logo/magnet and more at cafepress.com  haikuCircus

On the FAQ page, comic-haijin Sakamoto says:


Q: Is this really traditional haiku poetry?
A: It’s pop culture haiku. I break a few rules, but the syllables are still there.

We won’t let his syllable obsession keep us from smiling at Ken’s wit, sharing in

his frequent haiku moments, or wondering just what he’s smokin‘.
