Beautiful weeds
March 1, 2022 |
Click click. Click click clack.I hope that the compelling weather, the repellent stacks of grading in your office, or some other happy accident led you to cross paths this week with #freepoemsfreethoughts – the generous gift (may I call it performance art?) that Tyrone Williams and Richard Polt installed outside Alter Hall.
Supplied with a bare idea, the pair and their manual typewriters riffed and pecked on request.
Brilliant. I hope you, like me, came away with little slips of inspiration, rumplestilkinned from the basest of material — in my case, a thought provoked by my own rain-soaked, chemical-deprived yard (pictured above).
Best wishes for an inspired exam week.
