A contribution to the call for poems:
Muscles contract completing what was initiated elsewhere
Orchestral precision guides the transition from one place to the next
Velocity proportional to our longing for what was or might be
Ease embedded within the remembering of how this happens
Momentum gathers in the recognition of possibility
Encountering new spaces with unknown terrain
Nascent actions take form as electricity travels
Tumbling into what was scarcely imagined

Thank you for reawakening me from my poetic slumber.
Seems that with the move and everything we are in need of some
poetry to spice the place up a little. And when I think of Open
Space I think of movement. It's the fastest way I know to put
people to work.
So here are the terms of the 2011 biannual, or thereabouts, OSLIST
Poetry Contest:
Write a poem about movement, about the shift from one space to
another. Incorporate in your poem a reference to things left
behind, and a reference to new things discovered.
Those are the terms. Submit your poems to the list within this
thread over the next two weeks. The contest will close on April 22
at midnight UTC (Greenwich Meant Time).
Ready? Go!

While patching up references to the old OSList on the
openspaceworld.org, I noticed the position of OSList Poet Laureate.

A quick search of the OSList archives seems to say that our last
Poet Laureate was Chris Corrigan in June. Since this is a biannual
contest - I wonder if we're overdue? What say you, Chris?
