Haiku Sequences:

Occasionally I write a longer work whose sections consist of haiku or haiku-like poems. Most of these haiku sequences tell a story or relate to a single subject. One is a set of haiku disrelated except that each links to the next by some similar element (theme, place, sound, smell, mood, etc.), the linking element changing from poem to poem. (That's the last of the batch below).

Two of these are for laughs only - well, almost (Psychu and Microsoft Windows). One, "Lark", is a riff on poetry whose elements are only very distantly related to haiku.

Most of these haiku appear among the haiku pages, but here are featured as sequences.

Autumn, 1967

Bad Back

Cars and Birds

The Cat and the Lovers
