e pluribus haiku 2018
$2.99 on Kindle

This volume has 1000 original haiku, and is probably the best overall picture of the US in ~1974, when I traveled 48 states, and Guatemala to Alaska. The poems try to be true to the trip, and true to the era, though they are not always strictly true to fact.

This one was my pride & joy in that it came out in time for international haiku day; over 500 of the haiku were original, but there was enough modification so that each state is very different from the previous year. Each state includes a study of a woman, though of the fifty one, only some were real.

This was the first to have a thousand haiku, and it tried to be true to the trip itself; it is generally set in the 1970's.
1000 All haiku written in a 5-7-5 syllable pattern; many were originally inspired by a hitchhiking/boxcar trip across North America in the mid-1970's. These haiku show the incredible diversity of the USA, its people and its terrain, using the haiku tendency to highlight nature and the season of the experience.
The following were published on Amazon, but many of their poems are included in the above editions, so there are fewer original ones as time goes on.
