Best Answer

Haikus.

Bassho invented the haiku forms as we have them today, but what he invented that truly impacted us is the HAIBUN: a combination of haiku poetry and descriptive prose.

Bassho created the haiku structure to fit smoothly with his narrative, but others also contributed haiku to Bassho's notebooks.

Strictly speaking, therefore, there is no one to be a Zen Buddhist! .
