Editorial Focus
We seek to publish the best haiku and related forms in the English language as well as the most insightful articles and reviews. Our purpose is to remain the haiku journal with the largest circulation outside Japan. It is listed in the MLA International Bibliography and Humanities International Complete.
Tips From the Editor
Do not slavishly follow a 5-7-5 format. The best haiku in English have fewer than 17 syllables. Remember, first and foremost, that you are writing a poem.
