Author: Title: Poetry May 2022: Volume 220, Number 2
Description: Poetry Foundation 2022 Paperback. This issue of Poetry concludes, perhaps a little unceremoniously, with an essay by the Japanese writer Masaoka Shiki, first published over a century ago, titled �oeHaiku on Shit.” �oeIn everyday conversation, there are times when saying ‘shit’ sounds neither terribly filthy nor funny,” Shiki observes in Ikuho Amano and James Shea’s deadpan translation. �oeIf the word appears in a solemn public speech, however, surely the audience would be offended.” . as editor, these past few months have refreshed my faith in the transformative power of art. Poetry can make shit new. Source: Editor’s Note by Srikanth Reddy. Very good.
