Metaphor and Haiku

Q: Dear Luca, I want to ask about the use of metaphor in haiku. Some say that modern haiku allows the author to use metaphors, whereas haiku who do not use metaphors are classified as ‘classic haiku’ or ‘traditional haiku’.
Is it true that modern haiku allows the use of metaphors in it? What distinguishes modern haiku and traditional haiku? Thank you for your answer. Leggi tutto “Metaphor and Haiku”
