An eccentric classic of Zen poetry When Zen master Ikkyu Sojun (1394-1481) was appointed headmaster of the great temple at Kyoto, he lasted nine days before denouncing the rampant hypocrisy he saw among the monks there. He in turn invited them to look for him in the sake parlors of the Pleasure Quarters. A Zen monk-poet-calligrapher-musician, he dared to write about the joys of erotic love, along with more traditional Zen themes. He was an eccentric and genius who dared to defy authority and despised corruption. Although he lived during times plagued by war, famine, rioting, and religious upheaval, his writing and music prevailed, influencing Japanese culture to this day. "Ikkyu scandalized the Zen community of his day and is likely to scandalize some readers even now--his short poems are simultaneously bawdy, abrupt, vulgar, and reverential... It is impossible not to love the velocity and variety of his verse."--The Philadelphia Inquirer "Stephen Berg is exactly the right poet to have translated these poems."--Hayden Carruth,The Hudson Review "A deeply sensual man, Ikkyu had little patience for the fussiness of monastic life and ritual... What is especially appealing about Ikkyu's poetry is the way his sensuality infuses his Zen sensibility."--American Book Review Stephen Berg (1934-2014) was the founder and editor ofAmerican Poetry Review.

From the text:

sin like a madman until you can't do anything else
no room for any more


fuck flattery success money
all I do is sit back suck my thumb


something in us always wants to cry out
someone we love knows hears


if you don't break rules you're an ass not human
women start us passion comes and goes until death


only one koan matters
you

Ikkyu is pure zen. You can find other zens, tainted zens elsewhere with which you can maintain your motorcycles! ( )

Hearing a crow with no mouth cry in the deep darkness of the night, I feel a longing for my father before he was born.

even before trees rocks I was nothing, when I'm dead nowhere I'll be nothing. all the bad things I do will go up in smoke and so will I. if there's nowhere to rest at the end how can I get lost on the way? this ink painting of wind blowing through pines who hears it? born born everything is always born thinking about it try not to.
