About this ebook
Think you hate haiku? Think again!
Perfect for those who hate to read wordy poetry, Haiku For Haters contains only 24 painless pages of 5-7-5s.
If you think you hate haiku, let this brief collection of modern haiku change your mind, with subjects as diverse as pop-star Prince to Chairman Mao and rowdy (even literary) revolution.
No boring nature poetry here, kids – this ain't your mama's haiku collection!
This is the first in the "Haiku For You" series, so be sure to collect them all – including the companion book Haiku For Lovers and the titillating Sexy Haiku: 69 Erotic Poems for Lovers.
