My name is Hal Niedzviecki and Iām the McMaster Writer-in-Residence. That means I spend most of my time on campus hiding out in a little office either writing stuff or talking to people about writing stuff.
I thought it would be a good idea to come out of hiding and try something different: a giant poem that anyone from the McMaster community ā students, faculty, staff, alumni or friends ā could contribute to.
Using the hashtag #macpoem, the idea was to write the poem tweet by tweet, each line building on the last, to create a continuous narrative. There were some great creative contributions. Thank you to everyone who added their lines!
I hope you enjoy the McMaster poem!
#macpoem is a collaboration between the Writer-in-Residence and the McMaster University Library.
