From a form with a rich and spiritual tradition come haiku as you have never seen them before – irreverent, wry, often laugh-out-loud funny. But just because these poems are steeped in humour doesn’t mean they don’t also convey profound truths – from a bride throwing coins ‘flying like sparrows’, to the homeless ‘no food or water, / dying huddled together – / these floral tributes’, and antiques that ‘have mastered the art of / mourning in silence’, these haiku may be far from the Zen mysticism that Bashō aspired to, but they are deeply humane. If you like your truths peeled back to the quick, these nuggets of crunchy wisdom are for you.
