1200 Haiku about a bit of everything, from work frustrations to thoughts about the state of the universe to faith to the death of a famous pop star.I was inspired to write haiku first by my 7th grade teacher both in class as an awkward teenager, then again as an adult while reading the haiku I wrote as a child. I was inspired to write them again when I discovered Masaoka Shiki who wrote 26,000 haiku in his short lifetime. He wrote about everything including baseball.Taking a cue from his writing, I found I could write haiku about anything. The following 1,200 haiku are about a variety of topics including moments from my life, thoughts about current events, feelings and frustrations, fictional writing prompts and even short tweets to people about whatever. Most of them were written between 2009-2011.
