Analysis and comments on All the time I pray to Buddha by Kobayashi Issa

Comment 1 of 1, added on February 27th, 2006 at 5:39 PM.

These Kobayashi Issa haiku are like those wonderful cinematic snippets that make you hold your breath at the theater. Observation, complex emotion presented in visual images, then actually driven home to us, the observer/reader, in the sparest verbalization imaginable.
