Rec | WRITING A POEM WITH COWORKERS

📝

We do a “question of the week” every week (that has nothing to do with work). This week, someone asked that each of us write a line for a poem. One person started it then tagged another person to write the next line… it was a fun time.

COLLAGE POEMS

I am a high school English teacher, and recently I’ve been making a lot of collaborative collage poems with one of my classes. We all write for 5 or 10 minutes on the same prompt. Then, we all read aloud our poems. While the kids read, I write down a line or two that strikes me from each of their poems. Then I read aloud the resulting collage poem. The prompt for this one was “What can a poem be?” I love the surprise at the end, when we hear everyone’s words put together. And I love the strange and fresh weirdnesses that come out of stitching their snippets together.

Writing poetry about-for people

everyone should write poetry about their lovers but also their friends and even strangers! I ask on my Instagram every so often for people to write poems about and I always get a few takers and they always like the poem. It’s so sweet. I do this with strangers on the street if I get the vibe too!
