#haiku – Surprising
Carpe Diem Haiku Writing Techniques #5, comparison.
In the words of Betty Drevniok: ”In haiku the SOMETHING and the SOMETHING ELSE are set down together in clearly stated images. Together they complete and fulfill each other as ONE PARTICULAR EVENT.” She rather leaves the reader to understand that the idea of comparison is showing how two different things are similar or share similar aspects.
