"Possibly the most significant development in haiku-influenced poetry in our generation, these are both intensely personal and metaphysical poems – “The very heart of becoming” – in which the poem exceeds its own form, attaining something much larger."
—Eric Selland – poet, translator

A New Resonance 11
edited by Jim Kacian & Julie Warther (Red Moon Press, 2019)
The New Resonance haiku community continues to grow, now recognizing 185 members. These poets continue to appear in the major haiku journals and elsewhere, and their books have been accorded the honor of serious and adulatory review and critique. Many are recognized among the leaders of literary haiku in their respective countries and around the world.
From Triptych by Kala Ramesh, Don Baird, and Hansha Teki, Red Moon Press, 2019
This collaborative book of haiku, by three outstanding contemporary and international voices, has great aspirations: no less than to tell the story of the rise, fall, and recovery of humanity within its 180 pages. Each poet takes up one of these themes: Kala Ramesh paints a picture of the Eden of our origins; Don Baird tells the tale of the Fall; and Hansha Teki suggests possibilities toward our renewal, and that of our planet. The effect is similar to that of the prophets, crying out in the wilderness of men’s folly, with the hope that doing so will inspire a return to the faithful shepherding of our planet and ourselves, wherein a kind of redemption might be possible, and that we might be worthy of it. This is a great deal to ask, of the poets, but also of the reader. They have laid down the challenge. The rest is up to you.
