What She Did/What I Said, A Haiku Sequence

I am not
into you anymore
the night we made love

crescent moon
the way her words
sound like a slap

divorce court
her shadow
cuts mine

lone winter star
counting the lies
she has told

slowly crawling
on top of me
my ex in the dream

Ripples from a Splash

My book is now available through www.lulu.com [Liu's] haiku resonates the Asian spirit, and makes use of aesthetics in a continuum of time that is permanent and impermanent; the process more important than the subjective specificity of object bias found in most Anglo-Western haiku like poems. His poetry demand to be interpreted by the informed reader. They do not tell all, are not based on an “aha” moment, and have no definitive ending. More importantly they give meaning and voice to the unsaid, the magic inherent in Japanese poetry. -- Poetry Review by Robert D. Wilson, Editor-in-chief of Simply Haiku.
