Haiku is a Japanese poetic form which has fascinated from antiquity to the present day. Since the beginning of the 20th century, it was assimilated through modernism in Mexico, thanks to José Juan Tablada and, in the case of the English language, through imagism and Beat generation. In that same century a genre was established, for many a peripheral genre: science fiction, which has been even insulted by the academy, has got a lot of things to analyze, among them the existence of poetry inscribed within this cultural manifestation. Right there is where haiku and science meet to find a hybrid: scifaiku, which takes the best features of both.
