MY HOPES FOR YOU

(a duet to be sung over an infant's cradle)

--i hope you never get warts all over your face
--i hope kate beaton never badmouths you
--i saw an old lady with all warts
--she was beaton but unbowed

WHAT WE DO

Since 2010, Rutgers English PhD students and friends have been writing a poem a day for the month of April as part of NaPoWriMo (National Poetry Writing Month).

From the NaPoWriMo official site:

NaPoWriMo was founded in 2003, when poet Maureen Thorson decided to take up the challenge (modeled after NaNoWriMo, or National Novel Writing Month), and challenged other poets to join her. Since then, the number of participants has gotten larger every year, and many writers’ organizations, local, national and even international, organize NaPoWriMo activities.
