About Haiku of Frustration

Haiku of Frustration began as a daily rant on site founder Jennifer Thorpe’s MySpace blog. Many of the haiku featured there were inspired by the experiences of her working life. A collection of these poems was eventually anthologized in the book Haiku of Frustration: Wage Slave. In September/2008, HaikuOfFrustration.com was launched, as the official home for these works on the ‘net. The site features haiku written by Jen, but is also open to submissions from anyone. Now, 17-syllable rants on everything from work to technology to… whatever may show up on the site.
