We gathered together,
grad students celebrating scholarly excellence,
and discussed philosophy, narrative,
collaboration, theory and practice.
Should such a gathering be called
an erudition of grad students?
haiku- flying words May 1, 2014
The words have been
manipulated, twisted, and set.
Now they fly.

Sent off a collection of 4 poems this week for the CBC Literary Awards, squeezing under the wire at the last minute. It’s a huge national competition, and I don’t have any expectation, but nothing ventured, nothing gained! The pieces must never have been published or performed, so they’re a secret. That was the hardest thing: having to write daily for the blog, and compose something distinct for the contest. It’ll be months before winners are announced, so don’t hold your breath. I’m not! 😉 (But feel free to send some positive vibes my way!)
