A Line Meant (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781938841378)

In A Line Meant, the first of several planned community poetry projects, Poet Laureate of Wisconsin Dasha Kelly Hamilton has solicited cosmopolitan voices from across the state, gathering work from established poets to farmers, retirees, inmates, and more. Starting with single lines of existing poetry, participants have not only crafted their own unique works, but have also shared their poems and insights with each other as a form of connective tissue. Like a tree from many roots, this collection threads together the professional and hobbyist poet, growing new, powerful art from the margins between.
