Mayday Solidarity Rengay Project

I will be publishing a #Mayday #rengay on May 1st on #PIXIV, #AO3, and Fedi using the following theme: "#solidarity." If you would like to participate, please DM me 2x3-line verses and 2x2-line verses by the 28th.

Details

  • Depending on how traditional you feel, 3-line verses use the pattern 5, 7, 5 beats, and 2-line verses 7, 7 beats.
  • Don't worry about connecting your lines; they will be rearranged later to make a "coherent" poem.
  • Avoid obvious words such as "union" and "solidarity" to minimize duplication.
  • Since we are an international community, non-English verse will be accepted, provided I can verify the contents using Deep L.

I will arrange and edit, using portions of all good-faith contributions, and publish on May 1st in Japan and the US. All contributors will be credited unless you specify otherwise.

In solidarity, let's verse

@johannab @phillipcrymble.bsky.social Welcome, Phillip! I hope you love it here.

Poetry is a fabulous hobby. I wrote some myself many years ago, but these days I mostly just enjoy what others come up with.

Mary Oliver’s work was incredible. I see you’ve already share a little of it.

You might enjoy #PoetryCommunity and #PoetsOfMastodon, and I’m sure they’d love to get to know you as well.

Hi y'all. Well, this is past due. $13 bucks needed for April's survival. ASAP

All efforts to uplift and meet on time are appreciated. Also, if folks would like to make posts of their own, that helps too. Alt-text in the flyer.

Thank you all. Linktr.ee/khernandez

Well, y'all. I didn't make it.

I'm 320 short and hope to get that in by Monday to avoid fees and other capitalistic ugliness.

Amplifying helps. If you dont want to see a disabled Black woman unhoused please do all you can.

Thank you all. https://Linktr.ee/khernandez

Poetry about the devastation of war. Cooperation, understanding, and compassion should replace the thought or intent of war.

New poem, inspired by the clear cutting in Stanley Park, Vancouver, and more generally all the destruction happening in the world right now. My way of grieving I guess.

And if you want to see what's happening in the park, I posted a video (it's on Instagram though) : https://www.instagram.com/reel/DUxDw9IDk58/
