Market your poetry, or write something just for fun.
April is now officially halfway over, but there is still plenty of time to get involved in National Poetry Month and National Poetry Writing Month. I’ve been playing catch up myself, and I ran across a few new ways to participate for those interested, such as…
Write a Dekaaz. This is a new style of poetry that is similar to the haiku, but it has a syllabic style of two, three, five. It’s a fun way to experiment with poetry and I’ve been taking a stab at it throughout the weekend. The Dekaaz is also meant to be read aloud and shared after it is written—or you could simply try speaking in Dekaaz. I know that speaking in haiku is a lot of fun, so I am sure it would be worth trying!
