Collected Haikus
Jack Kerouac
“He’s the only one in the United States who knows how to write haikus…
Kerouac thinks in haikus, every time he writes anything—talks that way and thinks that way. So it’s just natural for him… He’s the only master of the haiku.”
Interview with Allen Ginsberg,
The Paris Review, 37 (Winter, 1966),
52-53.
“The American Haiku is not exactly the Japanese Haiku. The Japanese Haiku is strictly disciplined to seventeen syllables but since the language structure is different I don’t think American Haikus (short three-line poems intended to be completely packed with Void of Whole) should worry about syllables because American speech is something again... bursting to pop.
Above all, a Haiku must be very simple and free of all poetic trickery and make a little picture and yet be as airy and graceful as a Vivaldi Pastorella.”
