Poetry for Freethinkers
Poetry for Freethinkers
A freethinker is someone who plays by their own rules, someone who
isn’t willing to conform to the norm. The aim of this book is to bring
freethinkers together, not to ask them to conform but for them to
see and acknowledge one another. To enact change, I believe we have
to understand the people we share a space with and give them the
recognition we desire. Here, we have started the effort by building
poetry collectively. This book documents the merging of minds of
independent freethinkers.
Poetry for Freethinkers is divided into 3 parts: identity, love and nature.
Each part begins with the original poem used to make the poem template and is followed by the individual poems. At the end of each section is a
community poem. This poem was written by everyone using word trends
and theme analysis. I have taken the liberty to move words around for
best effect and to keep with rhyme structures but the words are all yours. Take a look at what poetry looks like when we create a freethinking collective.
