Sunday Picnic Is Elegantly Late

Sunday, every Sunday, let's have a community picnic. It's probably been a long week, and it's lovely to have a few minutes to sit back and relax and enjoy some good conversation in a less formal space. Feel free to bring something for the Picnic Basket - a poem you liked this week, a thought you had or something you experienced, or even something completely unrelated to poetry whatsoever that you just feel like sharing. Just take a moment to say hello, and maybe have a bite to eat; no one is going anywhere fast, and the shade promises some relief from the everyday heat. Let’s get to know each other a bit better, here under the branches of the poet’s tree.

I wrote "Sigma," experimenting with the "Irrational Sonnet" form (another Oulipian constraint). http://lipogramscorecard.wordpress.com/2013/12/06/irrational-sonnet-sigma/

Green Revolution, about a sustainable world and getting here from there, and this is why I tell stories (let it crumble), about, well, why I tell stories, but told from the PoV of someone else entirely.

In the course of nattering about other things, I mention this interview of me at Moving Poems Forum.

[poetree_admin]

This is the thread for non-personal, i.e. 'general' poetry news. Submission deadlines for poetry-related 'zines, news re: poets from outside the comm, and so on.

Okay...

The angel fishbowl was very popular. I've been posting poems, which you can find with the Poem tag.

Also I just discovered genprompt_bingo for which I have a card now. They accept poetry, if anyone needs prompts.
