~ ONE ART’s 2024 Haiku Anthology ~
A Note from the Editor:
Since discovering contemporary haiku just a few years ago, I’ve become fascinated by its power. As a practice, every day it teaches me deeper gratitude and heightens my ability to find connections in an often-fractured world.
In curating this anthology, I hoped to showcase the immense range of emotion that our form captures through both newer and revered voices. In reading thousands of haiku for our anthology, the strength and depth are even more than I imagined.
Furthermore, I’m proud of the submission guidelines that encouraged the inclusion of poems that have appeared on the poet’s social media. This is Timothy Green’s term of art “curation,” as we discussed on The Poetry Space_, which actively encourages the sharing of poetry. I think we can agree that none of these apples are bruised just by having hung on a tree before.
Lastly, I ask you to share our anthology with a friend that doesn’t normally read poetry.
Best,
Katie Dozier
