These pieces where inspired by the form of the Japanese poems known as Haiku. Just like the poem, these pieces have just three short phrases. In poetry the phrases are made up of 5, 7, and 5 "mora" (often translated to "syllable" in english). In this music, one "mora" is represented by any sound made on the piano, be it a single note or a chord. Each phrase in the music also uses a different scale containing 5, 7, and 5 notes respectively.
