When children move around while sleeping, they loose the cover and their sweaty bodies in the cooling air get cold, chilled and they easily catch a cold. Now with airconditioning this is a severe problem, so mothers watch over the little ones and put the covers back in place.

- quote - Susumu Takiguchi about Ono Rinka 大野林火 (1904～1982)
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . my peaceful slumber
"It is only in modern times that the Japanese became conscious of the question of 'ego.' [I wonder if this is really true.] This is mainly because the concept was brought to Japan from the West when it opened its shores in the mid-19th century, ending a seclusion policy that had stood for generations.
"The question of whether or not to bring ego (subjective viewpoints)into haiku became acute with Shiki Masaoka, one of the pioneers ofintroducing Western learning and culture. It was Kyoshi Takahama whoperfected the theory that haiku should be directed by objectiveviewpoints and that it is only through an objective sketch of what one sees that one's subjective view will be given the chance to manifest itself. Others were not that bothered by the ego issue. One such was Rinka Ohno (1904-1982). He was convinced that haiku started from 'self.'

learning the knack
of sleeping on a spring night...
making myself exhausted
"Spring is a sleepy season. For most people, that is. Therefore, something must be wrong with a person who has insomnia in spring. That is why this haiku becomes very personal, talking about the author's personal circumstance. I have done exactly the same thing he describes, doing something to make myself so tired that I cannot but
go out like a light when I hurl myself into bed. However, I have never thought of making it into a haiku."
quoted from Yomiuri Shinbun, 2007

Rapid eye movement sleep (REM sleep)
is a normal stage of sleep characterized by the rapid and random movement of the eyes. REM sleep is classified into two categories: tonic and phasic.
It was identified and defined by Nathaniel Kleitman, Eugene Aserinsky, and Jon Birtwell in the early 1950s. Criteria for REM sleep includes rapid eye movement, but also low muscle tone and a rapid, low-voltage EEG; these features are easily discernible in a polysomnogram, the sleep study typically done for patients with suspected sleep disorders.
