 [No title]
We are told by R.H. Blyth that "what can be said is not sabi."1 That imposes no obstacle to a haijin who understands Zen "wordlessness" as an eloquent form of communion.
It is a state of which Blyth says we "do not pick and choose what we are to rejoice and weep with."6 It chooses us: "winter hill —/alone together/with wind and stars" (H.F.Noyes 7).
In his haiku handbook, William Higginson describes sabi as "beauty with a sense of loneliness in time."8 A fine example is "Who can be awake/the lamp still burning —/cold rain at midnight" (Ryota 9) Despite undertones of melancholy in sabi, the more desolate aspects of our human condition are, traditionally, sublimated.
