Regarded as the father of contemporary haiku, Masaoka Shiki was a poet and literary critic during the Meiji period Japan.

He advocated realistic observation by “sketching” (shasei) poems and going out into nature with notebooks, thus abandoning the traditional subjects of haiku of the time. His advice for an aspiring poet was, “Use both imaginary pictures and real ones, but prefer the real ones.”

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0671: In the Air Tonight. The assignment: Make an atmosphere of your own.

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0671 discussion thread on Lines:

I envisioned entering a cave and the final descent into a dark abyss. Created with a Make Noise Strega semi-modular using the "Bat Cave" patch from the user manual. Added Valhalla Delay in Ableton Live. Along with bat sounds – birds, crickets, water drips, wind, and maybe frogs could be heard? Photo by Gabriel Tover via Unsplash.

Haiku featured in the collection "Fire on the Mountain: the Selected Haiku of a Wandering Zen Monk Taneda Santôka". Japanese, and English translated by Hisashi Miura and James Green.

A wandering poet and ascetic Zen priest, Santōka was a disciple of Ogiwara Seisensui, one of the first poets to discard the traditional use of the 5-7-5 structure in haiku.

Santōka’s poetry emphasizes the necessity of sabi (solitude) in order to achieve spiritual enlightenment and serenity.
