The Poetry of Work


A Renga is a type of Japanese collaborative poetry.  I have a vague recollection during my schooling of writing an Americanized version of a Renga.  What I remember doing was really alternating accretive poetry.  We would work in pairs mostly, sometimes more.  One person would write a stanza, then pass it to the next person who would fixate on one word in the stanza and use it as the basis. 
I’ve always loved non-sequiturs.  And to me a Renga is really just an excuse.  From work today:
The public notice for [Them], has expired. No comments were received. I am routing this for issuance approval.
What if anything do I need to at this point?
Nothing, just an FYI/status update. J Had there been comments, then you would have an action.
LOL!!
