RE: Renku - A 5 minute freewrite story
I like so much you cited renku on your freewrite, because I'm fond of Japanese poetry :)
Saying the heart is a renku, it's like you're saying that the heart contains small pieces of many people linked together, like renku poetry was a collaborative poem in which every poet should link his/her verses to the previous, that is also a beautiful image :D
I drop here the link for the newest freewrite: https://steemit.com/freewrite/@mariannewest/day-109-5-minute-freewrite-monday-prompt-yard-sale
Yes! I actually learnt what a renku was about two weeks ago through the guys at The Writer's Block and I've since been mesmerised by the whole idea of collaborative art. It immediately made me think exactly what you said, that our hearts hold in them the sum of every people that has left a mark on us in a sort of beautiful poem.
Thanks for the prompt! I'll take a shot at it later :)
