8 Poets ... #296

An alternative image of Wellington today .. I took part in a workshop on ChangeLabs on Wednesday and Thursday, which was about new ways of tackling complex and challenging issues.

During the workshop we all had to write a poem about the process or the experience so far .. thoughts ... feelings .. insights. The workshop was about a 50/50 mix of males and females. The interesting observation (by a female) after the participants who had wished to present their poems did so ... was that the poets were all male .. so the 8 of us who presented our creative works had to get a group photo at the end of the workshop ... well we are actually 7 here as one had to leave early. Some thoughtful literative poses ... and "that's me in the corner" as the song goes .. well not exactly .. I am in the back with the book.

Have a safe easter weekend.
