A brand new haiku journal







Bones

a journal for new haiku




a brand new haiku journal, which is seeking for all kind of a haiku style:
“Gendai haiku / New haiku i.e haiku written from, within, for the 21st century and based in/sprung from the haijin's cultural, linguistic and historic reality. Haiku that takes the language seriously enough to be willing to blow it apart from the inside in order to show/discover/reveal new meanings and echoes. Haiku that stands on the firm ground of tradition but has internalized it and is now written for today and the future. Exploitative haiku. Connective haiku. In the West haiku can be fruitfully pollinated by what is called fragmentary poetry/short poetry/micro poetry. We are constantly asking the question: what is haiku in the 21st century and what can it become if it's not to fall in with the carpet and be a neat little thing you do with your left hand and read on get well-cards? ... if it's not to repeat the already repeated stuff. Single haiku & serial haiku. Haiku that dares claim its own language, imagery, space and now. Experiments of every kind. Surreal haiku. Fantastic haiku. Conceptual haiku in both form and content."

  1. Thanks for the announcement and look forward to submissions!

    Could you correct my name to: Alan Summers

    Otherwise people will think I'm a kigo come alive. :-)

    kind regards,

    Alan

    1. Thanks so much, Alan, for dropping by in the third day of Fall.

      Firstly, I would like to apologize for my slip-up.
      What was the cause of my fall of proper orthography?
      Only my laptop knows.
      Anyway, there is no excuse for my err.

      And, of course, thank you for inviting to submit an entry.


      Wishing the Bones all the best for the many, many years on the Web!

      kind regards,
      Lech

  3. You are very welcome Alan!

    Ah, That Kigo is very important in London, England, UK, and in the whole world of haiku!
    In many meanings!

    Well, in my mistake I made some kind of "cutting". :-)

    Surely, I'm going to submit my 10 haiku to the Bones. (It will be my submission to haiku magazine for the very first time!)

    Hope more submissions from Poland will find their destination in Bones' email-box.
