..which brings me to.
.the fact that I have held the honor of being the OSLIST's Poet Laureate for about 6 months. And it is now time to pass the tiara along to our next Poet Laureate. As is our tradition, this amazing person will be selected by way of a poetry contest. And you, dear reader, may well be the one.and this may well be the time.to create a poem and be prepared to be surprised for the possibility of being chosen as our next Poet Laureate. So, in honor of our recent conversations about dialogue using different modalities (talk, text, but also sight, sound and so on), if you wish to submit a poem for our contest please write one that relates to O p e n S p a c e in some way, and. .include, reflect upon, honor or use.t h e s e n s e s (sight, sound, touch, hearing, taste and / or any other senses you wish to name) A few more notes: If you write your poem in your own language which may not be English, please do add a translation in English. You have until September 15 at midnight (Pacific Standard / West Coast USA Time) to send your poems to the OSLIST -plus- my direct email: lisah...@openingspace.net After that date I will publish again on the list every text of every participant sent to me. The poems will be judged by a vote of the OSLIST members, and the author of the poem that attracts the majority of votes will become our next Poet Laureate, which includes the honor of holding space for Open Space poetry for our list for the next 6 months. I very much look forward to this delicious experience of what is about to come.
