Next Poetry Club meeting is scheduled for January 4, 2011. We are encouraging everyone to bring a friend along to this first meeting of the new term.
The prompt for the January 4 meeting is something along the lines of: 'I have not yet become who I am'. I'm afraid that's as close as I can recall it at the moment. It's about growing into or becoming who you will be, or maybe about being who you will be, or something like that.
Edit: Enough people wrote poems based on the above rough approximation that I've decided not to delete it, but I do have the exact prompt now. It is as follows:
"All you are you are not yet."
It's apparently a paraphrase of a line from a long poem that I haven't seen and don't know the name of.
