Naviar Broadcast #295 – Last bloom before autumn – Wednesday 29th November 2023

Ingeom [part 3]

Winter sky–
Distant dreams
Shattered and flown away
(Tr. by John Stevens)
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.

This lovely haiku inspired a gentle improvisation on VST synth (LABS). Recorded in Reaper. Mastered with CloudBounce.

Winter Sky (naviarhaiku520)

basking
in the New Year's sun...
my trashy hut
 

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.
