Jonas also made Fool’s Haikus and Rabbit Shit Haikus which were part of Lost
Lost Lost edited in 1976.
His more recent Imperfect Three Image Films are haikus suggested by Julius Ziz
who proposed making films with only three images and edited together a
45-minute program with films by Bruce Baillie, Jonas Mekas, Nicole Blachon,
Moira Tierney, Masaki Hosokawa, Auguste Varkalis, Vanessa Von Houten, Kurt
Karpenter, Stom Sogo, Ken Jacobs, Jeff Perkins, Julius Ziz.
Incidentally sometimes when spending time together in a bar Jonas would suggest
we write haikus about something we saw during the day. One I remember is:
On wet sidewalk
A lonely bicycle wheel
Locked to a tree
