kissing the plate: haiku and senryu of David Oates
$20.00
“Haiku demands response. This new collection by David Oates had me pondering, giggling, wondering, nodding, groaning, smiling, contemplating, reminiscing, commiserating, dropping my jaw, closing my eyes, and yelling out loud, ‘Hell, yeah!’”
— David G. Lanoue (author of Mindful Renku)
Description
“In kissing the plate, David Oates takes us on a journey of social commentary through haiku and senryu. These poems — concerned with such things as an ancient battlefield, a closed shopping center parking lot where skateboarders ride, relationships, Alzheimer’s, a drought, a funeral, traffic jams, small town life — offer much to contemplate about humanity and our place on Earth.”
— Jacob D. Salzer (former editor, Frogpond)
ancient battlefield the call of an unseen crow the dog in her sunbeam me by you long married in the kitchen a spice bottle never opened first green this sudden grief where is it from?
