which is a bit like comparing sushi to frozen fish sticks.Even with the knowledge of the exotic,most poets stick to the meat and potatoes of English literature.It often isn't until we get older that we accept the simple goodness of fish,adding them to the menu more often. Having acquired a taste for fish and learned how to cook them,one is better able to appreciate the short form of haiku.Like fishing,haiku writing can be done with minimal equipment.A pin or a pen,and a scrap of paper,is enough,but it is tempting to go all out and buy a rod and reel (even study Zen,visit a monastery or take a trip to Japan).If one goes in for deep sea fishing,a computer and laser printer are soon on the list of'must haves'. Like fishing,to catch haiku you have to go where they are.Unlike fish,haiku are everywhere.Still,you have to know the secret places where they hide and how to get there. Wearing old comfortable clothes (usually thought of as a meditative state)we look around just where we are.It does little good to only read of fishing off the coast of Japan when sitting beside the lake by our own front door.It does help to know which fish are edible and which are not.There are two ways of finding this out.We can either eat everything we catch and publish what feels right,or we can read books containing others'experiences while making up our minds about what kind of fish to go for. If we compare spending days on rough seas to fish or strolling on the beach writing haiku;it is very easy for me to decide where my interest lies.Still I do love a fish dinner and I hope my neighbor enjoys my latest poems. 21.The similarity between fishing and writing haiku the text does NOT mention is A.the freedom to choose what we do with the product of each activity B.the delayed appreciation of both activities C.the thrill experienced when engaging in them D.the limited resources required for practising them 1377
