"My lover is in the shower, I’m on the bed
my body’s atomic plates
are moving
and shifting..."

Devious me wants to post this photo on oulipo.social (where, naturally, e's are forbidden), but I am afraid that hardcore users will be upset, even with a CW.

is there a #mastodon instance or group dedicated to writing and art that is #experimental #AvantGarde, #outre, #AntiEstablishment, #transgressive (not in *that* way), #unconventional...

like a #modern #oulipo

We are looking to make a collection of agents, publishers, editors for use by writers on Mastodon. Can you help? Leave a response below. THANKS.

Interesting dialog with much to think about...

"To raise awareness of her native language, 16-year-old Emma Stevens sang a version of The Beatles’ 1968 classic “Blackbird” in the Mi’kmaq language, an Eastern Algonquian language spoken by nearly 11,000 in Canada and the United States."

#haiQu is a kind of #haiku #senryu #flarf, composed of stolen phrases that are carefully matched with each other to create a #MicroPoem

#haiQu is a form of #haiku #flarf, composed of random lines from my feed. more properly akin to #senryu but who's counting?

If you're following me and confused about my account, so am I. I migrated away, learned a hard lesson, and migrated back. I lost some followers along the way.

dear #writers, #poets, #editors,

i'm new here. i chose @sfba.social simply because i live in the East Bay. it seems like a great instance with lots of great people. but i still wonder if it might have been wiser to choose an instance dedicated to writing and/or art

(this account is for building a community around my #LitJournal, #ExistOtherwise)

because i'm just getting started here, if i'm going to move, i'd rather do it sooner than later
