Information

I have decided to host a new Pass the Poem.
This time the subject is "Loss of a loved one".
I will only be accepting the first 25 people, so sign up quickly.

A few changes have been made to this round, so please read all the information carefully.

If you have any questions, please let me know.



Pass the Poem: Loss of a loved one


With the success of "Pass the Poem:Childhood" and "Spring", we are going to do it again.

Imagine "telephone" meets "chain letter" meets poetry.

The theme for this one is "Loss of a loved one". The style will again be freeform poetry.


How it will work

First comment or send =VertigoArt a note telling me you want to participate by July 10, 2009. We will start then or as soon as we get 25 participants.

Then I will post the list of the 25 participants in my journal.

I will post the first line in my journal with the title "PTP:Loss of a loved one"

I will then send the line, the list of names, and the theme to the next person in line.

That person will post what I wrote with the same title and credit me with it. They will then add their line of the poem and post it in their journal.

They will pass it back to me via note and I will pass it on to the next person in line.

Each person should write just one line. You may write a broken line such as:

Eating grapes
--------in the garden

if that would fit for your line. Remember there is no form, nor rhyme pattern, and no meter to follow; it is freeform and free flowing. We want the piece to go together, but ultimately we will not know what direction it will take until we are done.

Once completed I will post it in a news article as well as my gallery and you all are welcome to post it as well as long as you credit everyone involved.

Hope to hear form you all very soon. Only 25 people will be participating this time, so remember to sign up quickly via note to =VertigoArt. Remember all you have to do is one line and a simple journal entry.
