Haikus on Paper: Overview

As of 2020, I have 4 DIY "books" ('zines) of haikus:
  1. 1,000 Paper Cuts (2012)
    = maximum haikus! 32 bite-sized (& biting) snippets of personal events & social critiques.
    Available (free for friends/family, 2$ for others).
     
  2. Metanatural (2017)

    = pictures with words! Features 16 haikus with (18) full-color illustrations.
    Not currently available (due to prohibitive print costs; may be available later).

  3. Disingenuity (2019)
    = lean format (12 haikus), but juicy content, with color illustrations & poems contending with the wanton distortion of facts.
    Available (free for friends/family, 3$ for others).
     
  4. Interstitial (2020)
    = 14 timeless poems & 2 new poems (re: Covid-19 & social distancing), dedicated to making room for space.
    Available (free for friends/family, 2$ for others).



One of my haikus was officially published in Itch for their winter 2012 issue #14 (note: credit is per my old name).

Sample haiku
(which didn't make it into my books; was in response to the Boston Marathon Bombing of 2013)

Boston finger-trap

stranger is release
wound so tight you can't unlatch
squeeze in to set free
