extra special bitter

Wednesday, November 21st, 2007

Paul Mena is one of those folks that I’ve “kinda known” for close to fifteen years. He has a gift for writing haiku that captures a moment and a lifetime all in three short lines. He makes it look effortless, the way a world class ballerina makes a jete look effortless - and the results are just as beautiful as if you’d frozen that jete in midair to study it more closely. At his blogs, extra special bitter and haikupoet, you can get your daily dose of Aha! or sift back through more than three years of daily haiku. His blog also has an excellent blogroll if you’re in the mood to go looking for more poetry.
