Haiku encompasses an entire world, its space infinite, and it is always a brief moment in the present—and nothing more.

Many haijin poets—those who wrote haiku—created their own illustrations for their poems, while others' poems inspired artists. Their illustrations are filled with floral designs, unusual animals, amazing characters, and even calligraphy, because, as the classics said, one should not describe things, but rather name them in simple terms, as if naming them for the first time. This is precisely what haiku is, and this is what draws readers.
