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.

(a list of happy things that includes my new poem in Goblin Fruit and a tiny bit of kvelling over Rachel lining up a poetry reading in Jerusalem)

The promised poetryspam has finally happened! How To Knit A Scarf, a meditation on learning to knit and family; what little genderqueer individuals named Alex are made of, what it says on the tin; exhibition square dance at the Chestertown Tea Party, what it says on the tin; Justice, on racism and assorted other isms; Songbird, written just before I got the idea of hosting a

poetree week on the queer female experience.

The poetryspam continues! But this one's a fanpoem more than anything else so I post from the fannish account: King of Games' Solution, about the Pharaoh from Yu-Gi-Oh!.

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.
