Allison, Zac and I wrote free poems at yesterday’s Atlanta Streets Alive. It was hot and humid but we found a nice shady spot. There were dogs on skateboards wearing sunglasses. There were lots of guys on bikes blasting Kenny G from their speakers. There were tourists and Atlantans and kids of all ages. There were crazy topics and topics we knew nothing about, namely sports, baseball, some guy named Drew Brees? Come on, we’re POETS, we don’t care about that physical movement thing! One especially sweet moment: I wrote a poem for an 8 year old girl on the topic of “love”. She was going to give it to her sweetheart.
