(a self-published CD)

(title page photo: Mortar round explosion hole in asphalt runway apron, Nha Trang, Viet Nam, 1967.)
Viewable in Microsofttm
PowerPointtm format, these self-published poems and photographs
strive to capture what I feel is a unique flavor of haiku that stems from our
often ecclectic cultural concretions here in the United States of America. Thirty-six photographs complement or contrast
thirty-six haiku poems. I strove to keep
off balance the adjacent themes, colors, and textures of both the haiku and the
photos, so that no two adjacent haiku-photo frames would be accused of
attaching themselves to one another. In
this construct, I attempted to sustain the haiku of contrasts across the whole
of the compilation.
This cd started out as an
experiment, became a Christmas present for family and friends. For the collectors in the crowd, each CD is
numbered sequentially, logged, and signed by me. Issue #1 is gone already. Issue #2 has a few copies left. american
haiku: volume one, can be ordered directly from me. I can ship via U.S. Postal Service standard
delivery in the United States of America or elsewhere. Contact me by email to make
arrangements. american haiku: volume one CD’s ordered will be shipped
with all diligence once the customer’s personal or bank check
clears. DO NOT send cash. Requests for this CD will be filled in the
order that they are received. This is still
a self-published disk. I, the
author/publisher, retain all copyrights to this disk and its contents. Anyone requesting to order a full issue will receive
special consideration and handling (normally an issue consists of twenty-five
(25) CD’s that I publish, number, and sign all at the same time.)
You MUST have the PowerPointtm program running on your computer in order to view this poetic and photographic work. I may decide to convert this into a book at some point, at which time I will no longer publish or offer the CD.
May the Good Lord Bless You as You Seek Him!
