leave poems/quotes in public

so for the tail end of my creative writing course, we’ve been assigned to do some ‘performance poetry’ which basically needs to involve the community in some way. i’m thinking about writing poems, then leaving one word of them on a sticky note and attaching the poems to the bindings of books in the library. Then, when people pick up books, they’ll have one word, and the remaining poem will be altered.

i’ve got two months to make the magic happen. i guess we shall see:0)

i left one in All that is Solid Melts into Air by Walter Berman at the Warwick University library. Not necessarily public, but it’s a first step:0)
