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 participated in NaPoWriMo last month, and while I didn't complete the month with a full 30 poems, I did manage 22. The majority are public access and can be viewed here, and cover a range of topics. Some are TW'd for content.

raze, I was a NaPoWriMo participant, and my whole months' worth of poems is here on my Tumblr, but I've put together a collection of my particular favorites.

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.

I'm trying to write a piece of erotica. So far I have a thousand words of which a hundred fifty or so are meant to be sexually suggestive prose. (No words actually containing sex. Yet.) I figure that interests this comm because the technique I'm using to make that paragraph sound sexy is 'load paragraph down with alliteration and assonance'.
