I found this softcover at a local Savers thrift shop, and was delighted! It contains an assortment of humorous haiku (in Japanese and in English) and artwork, over several centuries... The poems touch a wide variety of human foibles:
"Coming for a loan
he looks
especially honest."
"Looking foolish
while waiting for
the next sneeze"
"Cats eyes
children's hearts
autumn sky - all fickle"
"Taking a nap -
the roof over his face
made by a book"
