This collection of poems came out of an experiment for a project a fellow poet and I are working on. The task was simple, to write a poem a day, every day for a month. 24 hours to conceive, plan, write and edit a new poem every day; email it to each other before midnight. Well, the midnight deadline didn’t always quite get met, but the poem a day did. The catch: every poem was to explore love in some form. There’s poems about true love, soul mate love, infidelity, whale love, first love, lost love, unrequited love, undeclared love, dark love, abandoned love, arrogant love, ghost love, broken love, eternal love, love-at-first-sight love, literary love, 10-second love, pure perfect impossible love, painful love, imagined love, fantasy love, universe-ending love … and more besides I’m sure.
