coffee or not
an old new poem
My friend Mary Beth Kaplan mary beth kaplan🪶 invited me to take a dead poem. (i.e. an old poem, a forgotten poem, a rejected poem) and make it live again.
(I don’t really like the term dead poem, I would call them forgotten, or lost or unfinished or old or attention deserving)
Instructions:
Take one line from your old poem… let it spark a new one.
And/or
Black out words in your dead poem to create a new one.
SHARE your poem!!
