Autumn 2005 edition of <\/FONT>Simply Haiku<\/FONT><\/EM><\/A> journal is now available online. It <\/FONT><\/DIV>

presents haiku and other short-form Japanese poetry by many fine haijin, <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
including five haiku each by two friends of f\/k\/a<\/EM> — the ubiquitous and <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
prolific Ed <\/FONT>Markowski and the always-curious Bret Wooldridge (who has <\/FONT><\/DIV>
\n
a wife and 6 <\/FONT>daughters, but still doesn’t know what women want<\/FONT>).<\/FONT><\/DIV>
