Perhaps this is because I admire short fiction, and the haiku is, by definition, about as short as you can get. Well-done haiku feel so ephemeral. Almost magical. Its simple 5-7-5 beat structure can feel barren at times, and, in fact, when in cavalier hands, that barren nature can come off as too slight. In other hands, though, the aura of a haiku leaves one wanting to dwell in the essence of the images it creates.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere's a magical balance in a haiku that may not exist in other forms of poetry, or at least not in quite the same way. I always find them interesting.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYet, despite this framework, I rarely wrote any.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second idea was artificial intelligence and its generation of art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRon Collins, Introduction\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ron Collins\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1946176435\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781946176431\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Skyfox Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.56d","brand":"Ron Collins","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075768086783,"sku":"9781946176431","price":39.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_46173cb1-68ec-42e8-ab0c-0dad847adc6b.jpg?v=1685461324","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/five-seven-five-ron-collins-9781946176431","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
