Abstract
The poetry community in Australia, as in the United Kingdom, has been slow to accept prose poetry as a legitimate poetic form. Yet there have been celebrated exponents of poetry over nearly two centuries - and even longer if the prose component of the Japanese Haibun, developed by Matsuo Basho (1644-94), is understood as prose poetry.
