Exhibit Corpse

My housemate Aggie has been developing this community poetry project titled Exhibit Corpse, named after the Surrealist drawing game, Exquisite Corpse (also recently adapted as a drinking game, we learn). The idea is simple, you start with a line of your choosing, in this case it has been "She thought she kept." From there the next person contributes a line, and the person that follows only receives the previous line and adds their own.  This very simple formula has been a great way to meet people in the neighborhood. While many are happy to give a line and be on their way, many others share stories about their antique businesses, recent evictions, bipolar disorders, aspiring careers, and much more. Once the lines are collected, they are redistributed line for line in the neighborhood; posted on light posts and stop signs for all to ponder.
