white and purple
and yet the scent of lilacs
is a ladder

hvid og lilla
og alligevel er syrenernes duft
en stige

Noah's Eggs / Noahs æg

The second book of parallel haiku has been published by Yet To Be Named Free Press. This time it's in Danish and English. Find it under "Books"

"Like the two hemispheres of our brains that collaborate to shape and define our reality, so it is with Johannes S.H. Bjerg's "Noahs eggs", a book of parallel haiku- two haiku positioned on a page together that, when read tends to create a third sense or dimension in relation to the two haiku. Bjerg pushes the envelope juxtaposing his well crafted and profoundly meaningful haiku images."

-Amos White, Author of "The Sound of the Web: Haiku and Poetry on Facebook and Twitter”.
