Author Notes
Renga is Japanese collaborative poetry in which alternating stanzas, of 5-7-5 stanza and 7-7 couplets are linked in succession by multiple poets. The most famous renga master was Matsuo Basho.
Guest poets check the last stanza in the renga book to know what to write next. A 5/7/5 stanza is followed by 7/7 couplet following the same theme without repeating the same words.
