in workshop as well as exploring 'haiku' in the more traditional way with young people i've been encouraging them to experiment a little and work in teams with cut up headlines to make some 'shreadline' pieces.... these facillitated by Sarah Laws from Rural Media.... as part of  our Digital Haiku Project... some of the lines will be used now to make further work...
 
Gardening

 

it’s now or never for thrills of nature
a little bit of pregnant woman
my experience of life
riding the storm should all snap, crackle and pop
dreams of glory in the heat of the missing link
once more confident of checks
feeling a period a sick joke
moment of truth
with the dad
winter extending unexpected
why not be a wild crocus on my grave
easter revision lucky students
i fought with a year’s rent madness
bride kicked out of
leicester

 

 

 

Snatch Squad of Truth

 

there is no need

of war

fury as seekers

play the moment

britain

a stronger friendly model

past protest

phone link to home

cannot be all to all men

schools storytelling

capture irish party

quick fix to make

middle classes

nearly lost

 

 

USA

 

tickled pink!

for a budget break, women in place

edwards misses the party in Japan

self-serving? another lesson

bosses beg brown on the front link

liechtenstein extends under siege

proud to be french

princes’s power bedtime

top marks in the israeli bulldozer

saddam has proved an extension

dissing the doubting

our egos capable of any crime

new killer bug threat

mini super-zoom are born

 

 

Hero

 

blair’s dilemma:

with the bid win back

why today’s

champions

middle-class

as air travellers

the hunted spread killer

the defence

old fool no fool

moment of the world

fears over

there is first

worldwide alert
