The brevity of form made it possible to cover a stunning range of landscapes - emotional and physical. Like a jigsaw puzzle, I kept arranging, rearranging lines in poems, addicted to that dose of serotonin that washed over me when a haiku or tanka set well. Guavas pop-up here as do sunflowers, nieces and lovers. Playful and brooding, heart breaking and exultant, these poems strobed in watercolor art, revel as much in the lushness of nature as the depth of feelings found within a human heart. Jesal has always been drawn to making beautiful connections with seemingly disparate ideas. When a haiku juxtaposes two disparate images, out of the synergy jumps a new, nuanced meaning. If we look at urban existence, it is fraught with dissonance: the push and pull of expectations, the contradictions within roles, and unexpected, raw beauty. So, haiku and tanka seem to Jesal as perfect forms for expressing this fractured, beautiful ordinary life. Written from the perspective of a young woman, the poems in Tanpura's Strum draw from the themes of love, heartbreak, loss, motherhood, the progression of time and nature. Set on a wide-ranging canvas of the natural world - beaches, forests and urban flora - as well as the domestic - cafés, homes and street life, the poems rest on nectar-like moments that make us feel most alive, impassioned and at other times soul-crushingly human.
