No better way to learn than to read the good stuff. Here is where you can do that: http://poetrylives.com/CHO/index11.html which is the webzine "contemporary haibun online."

You can read the alpha text of haibun online! Matsuo Basho's "Narrow Road to the Deep North" Tr. by Nobuyuki Yuasa at http://terebess.hu/english/haiku/basho2.html The arrangement of the haiku in 4 lines is unusual but remember, in Japanese, haiku were usually in a single line. Enjoy! bw, Denis (Message edited by denismgarrison on July 21, 2005) www.dmgar.com Visit Loch Raven Review at www.lochravenreview.com My books are available at www.lulu.com/denismgarrison
