Lenard D. Moore and African American Haiku: Merging Traditions
identifies Moore as a primary figure in the American Haiku Movement
as well as a significant contributor to the field of African
American haiku. Ce Rosenow analyzes the ways in which Moore
combines haiku with a variety of other traditions: African American
storytelling, jazz poetry, ekphrasis, and elegies. An examination
of Moore's haibun, a Japanese form combining prose and haiku,
reveals the further development of the African American aesthetic
created in his individual poems. Ultimately, the author argues that
Moore's decades-long engagement with haiku and his prolific
publication history solidify haiku as an established form in
African American poetry.
