If I remember correctly, Mark led us in a workshop whereby we each selected a poem from The New Yorker Magazines provided and turned it into haiku. Perhaps we could do that again the next time we meet? Just as Amy's workshop at our last meeting was so helpful, regular poems into haiku can be quite insightful.

Whaddya think?

Sounds fine to me. Any "stimulus" session
would be good--whether non-haiku poems
or other methods. I remember attending an
HPNC meeting where several one-liners were given
(by Paul) and we finished them into haiku.
So, who wants to lead it?
