Bio Sketch
Pat Tompkins is an editor in the San Francisco Bay Area. She likes combining haiku with prose in haibun, which have appeared in bottle rockets, Thema, Haibun Today, and Contemporary Haibun Online.
Pat's haiku is tightly structured with an emotional undercurrent. And the emotionally resonant verb and the closing evocative image add symbolic significance to the poem.
