Shane Rhodes’ Treaties poems (that link and the next 3 links forward at CanLit Guides) and ones at Numero Cinq Magazine and one set to music, Cordite Poetry Review are coming in his 6th book entitled X coming this spring 2 years after his last collection.
It’s good to see a longer cycle of an idea explored for a few years in various ways.
If that isn’t enough inspiration for you, here’s a round up of prompts to get you through the rest of April:
If you’re short of writing starters… there’s Rick Lupert’s guest prompts at Poetry Superhighway, and Jo Bell’s prompts from the UK, and for another week only, the Rusty Toque is doing an exquisite corpse. The last line of the day becomes the first line of the next day that all poems respond to. You probably know the American prompts at NaPoWriMo, and Robert Brewer’s prompts at Writer’s Digest are hard to miss knowing about. Doing pwoermds daily has no prompts just the challenge Geof Huth makes it prompt here at Not Without Poetry and updates daily at InterNaPwoWriMo.
And May to July must be international editing poems quarter.
