It’s a poem written about a picture or work of art–or inspired by a picture / work of art–meant to expand upon the meaning of the piece it’s in response to.

Networking (aka Having Fun at) Boskone this Weekend!
Conventions are fun. 🙂 So is networking… or as I like to call it, “hanging out.”  I actually hadn’t intended on attending Boskone. With all the traveling I’ll be doing with going to visit Scott, and several other unplanned trips that are now getting planned, I figured I could drop out of this particular… Continue reading Networking (aka Having Fun at) Boskone this Weekend!
