Tony Lipka • kasen renga: Staples of Life Clark Strand's Mindful Haiku	NO BLOOD, SWEAT, OR TEARS HERE! A collection of Haiku by Tony Lipka This is a collection ofmy favorite haiku. The title comes from my signature haiku. However, I make the distinction of showing that writing these haiku was not a process that caused me pain, unlike the subject of my signature haiku. I hope you enjoy my collection.
Reader's Introduction Tony's collection is based on past experiences in his life. I found many of his works enjoyable, such as: the only man brave enough made of snow and also, his signature haiku: in all the clamor blood, sweat and tears, this is my peace In all of his haiku the reader can take the place of the writer and reflect on their own memories.
