poetry is in all things

you, me, us

As was mentioned at the beginning of this month, this month is also national poetry month. In celebration of this month, we thought it would be fitting to ask you to write something bigger than the typical hellokoo yet stay within its familiar structure. Let us explain. Today we want you to write a series of hellokoos about poetry but make each hellokoo link. Think of each hellokoo as a stanza in a big poem. We’ll post an example below and we’ll see you in the comments.

Below is three hellokoos put together to form one poem.

The engine rumbled,

coughed like it stood too close to

the roaring bonfire,

—

its wheels turned slowly

barely able to escape

its paused stagnant state

—

but we were going

and we did not know where to

but adventure awaits.
