Happy New Year all!
Issue # 5 of Hando No Kuzushi is slim but powerful, comprised solely of five haikus by Michael Frissore. Read them once for the message, again for the structure, and a third time just 'cause. Since many of us are undoubtedly looking to detox and slim down after the holiday season binge, these haikus - in their small form and surface-level accessibility - might just be what the doctor ordered. And if not, enjoy them, anyway. What's one more vice to begin the new year?
A martial arts term, Hando no Kuzushi denotes the unsettling of balance through reaction. Originally, our focus was on Asian American literature, but we have now broadened our scope to include all genres of writing - anything that captures the essence of the moment. What moment? you ask. And whose?
Well... why not now? And yours?
We love stories steeped in humor and irreverence; we love stories that make us think and/or help us kill time. We would love to read what you got.
So... shall we?
