Hi, I am working on a new poem and would love some assistance. I will place below some lines I have already drafted. I hope you will catch the scheme and spirit of my embryonic notion and add to it. (Don¹t take specific details too literally.) And please keep on adding without changing anyone else¹s contributions. It¹s raw. I¹ll edit the full compilation later and re-post it. This is so crazy it just might work, and it¹ll be over when it¹s over (most of the practice of poetry is revision and re-writing).
The Days of Now [working title] On the night before Now we all clambored over and greeted each other. Now came the first morning, We asked each other many conversations and passed around the shining circle. On the second day of Now, I could see a long way in people¹s eyes. On the third day of Now, everyone called up tomorrows, bellied their laughs and embraced every future Now with sweat-slicked arms and braided voices. Each night Now the sky came down to join them. On the fourth day of Now [this space is now open begin adding here] Thanks.
