Description June 2009.

This concrete poem was created for my Writer's Craft summative assignment. I was working on a "square" concrete poem (which, well, was about being "square"), but I couldn't come up with what to write halfway through. So, the square went 3D, and this was born.

Collaborative effort between Notepad, Adobe InDesign and Acrobat Reader, and the GIMP.

[ EDIT | 15aug2009 ]: Wow, thank you everyone so much for reading this poem and adding it to your collections/favourites. I will try to get to every comment, because I appreciate them all, but it might take a while for me to get to them. I'm not sure if I'm able to get to thank you all individually for +fav-ing this, but please know that you have my deepest gratitude. <3

[ EDIT | 19aug2009 ]: O.O THANK YOU FOR THE DAILY DEVIATION! -faints- icantbelieveigotadailydeviationwhileiwasinactivehere(nowijustfeelbadforbeingawaysolong>.<) Thank you. I still can't believe this piece has touched so many people.

May I ask about licensing rights to this for use on a blog post?  It's already in use all over the web but I haven't been able to find permissions or fee information anywhere.

Thank you!

Hi there,

My name is Danni King and I am a senior at Ohio University. My senior project this year is to create a new literary magazine, which I have titled "Shattered Illusions." One of the things this assignment entails is soliciting works from people to publish. I am a huge fan of your work and I would love it if you would let me publish this piece in my magazine. My magazine focuses on different points of view and interesting ways to look at the world. Unfortunately this magazine is an assignment and will be non-profit, so I cannot pay any of the authors or artists who submit work so I understand if you don't want me to include yours. I would need an answer by October 17th at the latest. If you are willing to let me use some of your works please email me a short author bio. If you dont wish to let me uses your works then it is no problem, just let me know as soon as possible. I love your work!

Danni
