Overview
"Made in America Haiku" was written by a man born in the western hemisphere using a poetic form conceived in the eastern hemisphere. More than 1,704 nuances of feeling are explored in this odyssey of one-night stanzas - acupuncture for the psyche. Oddly enough, even if you read a few hundred of these haikus, you just might feel you haven't read enough.
Description


Lost and found in translation.  Each haiku contains a word that is represented by the Japanese character above it.  Some words are round and some words are pointed.  Not for the faint of rhyme or reason.

About the author

This is where I write about myself – the author – in the third person. Like so many other people, Andrew was born with his mother by his side. Having traversed through several decades, he is now speeding recklessly to the on-ramp of the octogenarian superhighway and he has no poetic license. When he's not out roaming about, he resides at home.
