“VerSuch … das projekt gendai haiku“, the German-language journal aiming to showcase the state and development of modern haiku, edited by Dietmar Tauchner and Ralf Broeker, is now online. Pleased to see it includes two of my haiku. Translated by Ralf Broeker, they can be found by scrolling down the July 2014 issue. They can also be read here:

slowing down time…
she pricks her thumb
on the spindle

On the one hand, sleeping beauty, on the other, have a look at this article about time freezing or slowing down under certain circumstances: Click here

‘effortless’

stories
emerging from their cocoons…
effortless

 Rebetiko is the urban blues of the old port areas of the Eastern Mediterranean – Smyrna/Izmir, Istanbul, Syros, Piraeus, and Thessaloniki. If you happen to be in London, you can listen to this soulful music most Monday evenings at the JCR of the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, lovingly performed by members of the SOAS Rebetiko Band. SOAS Rebetiko emerged out of  music seminars organized by Ed Emery. It is a free event, you only need to sign-in as a visitor at the School entrance/Porter’s desk.

This year, a new event is being organzed by the rebet lovers: The Rebetiko Carnival.

Check it out, and if you can go, go!
