It has a dark atmosphere about it but it's all present in a matter-of-fact way that makes it open for many interpretations. That's what I like about haiku. Good haiku leaves it to the reader.<br /><br />I dunno about the analysis of some of these "experts." I think they make a simple poem way too complex because they can. "Basho meant this," "Basho was trying to evoke that," "No, he meant this, that, the other." I think people just put meaning where they want to see meaning, much like we still do today. Nothing wrong with that, I guess. <br /><br />But it's when we start insisting that a poem written hundreds of years ago by a man, (not a god) who didn't say much about the poem he wrote himself, means X and only X is where we get into trouble. <br /><br />It's a beautiful poem and one of my favorites. I appreciate its long history and the fact that it blew 5-7-5 apart.
