This is an article of James W.Hackett , published in the last Hermitage journal. I have already placed his well known suggestions for creating haiku poems in English ( http://origa.livejournal.com/78196.html?nc=72 ). By placing this article now, I hope we can share our own attitudes towards, and views on haiku, and have a useful discussion, and haiku writing. Please feel free to share your poems, your thoughts, and your love for haiku! :)
