National Poetry Writing Month

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 30, 2008, 10:32 PM
  • Mood: Joy
  • Listening to: "Symphony" by Hybrid
  • Reading: "Valis" by Philip K. Dick
It's National Poetry Writing Month! I'm going to try to write a poem a day, start posting them as scraps, and then linking them on this journal entry. Last quarter I had a literature teacher (who was also a poet) an she has been writing a poem a day for more than two years now! I expect if she can do it that long while juggling kids and teaching I can do this pretty easily.

Edit 4/30: NaPoWriMo is over and I finished with 30 (hurray), although about four of them I really phoned it in. Now I'm poetry-ed out though, maybe its time to try write some more prose and go through a revising phase.

You have some beautiful stuff on here, and a very different style. I was only disappointed that there wasn't more of it! Keep writing!
