General Background AC has been faithfully offering fine forums for sharing much of our online creative activity. The decision was made to take things up a notch and meet online for a live poetry gathering. A small group piloted the live format. The first one went so well that it led to a second. There will be more, so stay tuned for announcements!
And now we’d like to share a few creations written in real time.

Meeting 2: July 4, 2023
“Cleansing”
Morning in my muddy bed my stem entangled in another’s I stretch till my follicles crack
Up through the murky water a glimmer of light from somewhere above
I slink towards it through the slime till reaching the surface I sprout splendid purple petals weightless upon the water in a sea of lotus finery

Clean
Regurgitated moxie spun, congealed, spread, and puzzled into flaglike wings, she works her way out
of her chrysalis, drinks first sunlight with new eyes, climbs her first current with new limbs,
falls upward and into the dance of the rest of her life.

How does it work? We all meet together here in this thread at a certain date and time? It sounds like a great idea but I guess I am not sure of the details. Can someone explain more about this? 😃

Can someone explain more about this? 😃 Our first two meetings took place via Messenger. There's a camera option without need for any other application. Are you a facebook member? if so, friend me or the others in this thread and we'll add you to the conversation. We've begun to plan for a September meeting. I'd love you to join! Let me know if this is an option for you. We're still searching for the best, easiest way to meet live.

Thank you for the clarification, Judith! I do not have Facebook, or any social media platform, so I guess that answers that ha ha! 😂 I was thinking the AC live was something here on this site. Thanks again for explaining this to me, I appreciate you!
