If you’re in need of a little extra inspiration for this week’s challenge, we’ve collected a few haiku-related links for your enjoyment.

• Learn about Haiku as a Poetic Form at Poets.org
• Learn about the Haiku in English from Wikipedia
• Enjoy a list of some of the most Famous Haiku, translated into English
• Then, learn a bit about the four poets considered to be Haiku Masters, individually:

  • Matsuo Bashō

  • Yosa Buson

  • Kobayashi Issa

  • Masaoka Shiki

• And, to help contextualize haiku for a modern audience, LA Weekly has Every State and Local Ballot Measure Explained … in Haiku!

Hope you’re super.
