Public Poetry

Compose a poem.

It doesn't have to be a good poem. If you can't think of how to make your thoughts into a poem, just arrange a few sentences so they *look* poetic and then change or delete a few words to give your creation the feel of highly crafted verse.

Now, write it on a clean(ish) piece of paper. Grab some tape. Tape it somewhere in public.

Go back and check on it occassionally, to see if it's still there.

Safe bets:

*Bookstore or community bulletin boards

*Telephone poles

*Anywhere you'd see a garage sale ad


Not-so-safe bets:

*Side of a bus.

*Wall at the police station.

*On someone's dog or child.
