Mayan Doomsday Myth: A Haiku Sequence

for Mayan Doomsday non/believers

Doomsday Eve
I start counting last
autumn stars

snowy morning,
December 21...
reciting Basho

the day after...
a roof icicle holding
the morning sun

Note: Dec.20 is the last day of Autumn.

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.
