Deviation Actions
I've only met with one deviant (offline)
and they happen to be
one of my favorite writers here
it's a very interesting thing....
to see someone in their true flesh and bones
maybe alike in some ways and unlike in others
it's really an awesome thing
to get past the internet barrier of anonymity
to see and know
that there are others
out there fishing, just like us
throwing their work
and hearts out
for us to latch onto
and what is the probability
that we'd end up doing that
in the same place?
(how effing cool is that?)
we are deviant, in a
lovely and wonderful way
a mildly destructive and dissatisfied offshoot
broken and branching
to the side
where few travel
we are dark and light
we are the future
and past futures
and pasts, we are many voices
yet we are not legion
we do rail and we struggle
but legion
speaks with one voice
and ours
is that of many
Dear Deviants,
Who are your favorite poets on dA? Mine are well represented in my faves. I wish there were more hours to read and scout out new talent, but bending time is a challenge these days. If you could meet one dA artist, who would that be and why? Please comment and elaborate and stay awesome, my dear peoples.

April Poetry Contest Results
Greetings and Thank You, Dear CommunityFirst, huge thank yous from CRLiterature (https://www.deviantart.com/crliterature) to anyone who contributed poems, promotion or prizes. The quantity and quality of the entries was great and the scoring was incredibly close.
To All ParticipantsI'm going to keep this short, but.... I just want to take a quick sec to congratulate all participants. This is a rough time in our history as humans and, despite all that's working against our creative energies, you did it. Whether you won, placed, finished or didn't finish NaPo, whether quarantined or not, you frickin' did something cool this April.

April Poetry Contest Reminder
Greetings Again, Dear CommunityWe've collected several entries for CRLiterature's April Poetry Contest, but we can definitely use more, more, more. There are still 4 days left in April- way longer than you need to write and edit one winning poem.
:bulletred: Perhaps you're quarantined in the stale air of all those thoughts and words. Nail them to the page and freshen things up.
:bulletred: Maybe you're still working in the open. Take some time to record your history to the page.
:bulletred: Find the rules and contest journal here.
:bulletred: View the registered entries here.
Oh Yeah... and ThisThat's really all I have regarding the con
April Poetry Contest
ATTN: Contest is now closed. Results will be posted mid-May
Greetings, Dear CommunityOK. I know there is a lotta crazy stuff going on the world right now. Perhaps we at CRLiterature (https://www.deviantart.com/crliterature) can help distract you from it or even help you bring awareness to a particular thing that’s got ahold of you. With this journal, I’m hoping to rouse some buzz and interest in CRLiterature (https://www.deviantart.com/crliterature), NaPoWriMo (https://www.deviantart.com/napowrimo) and poetry, in general, with a contest. And what better way to solicit a steady stream of fresh April words than with the promise of prizes and fanfare?
Back in 2014, I decided to actively write poetry again after a long break… and,
My Thanks to Owl Y'all
My thanks to you
I wanted to stop in and say hi to all of you who support the DA Lit effort in the ongoing war against the dullards and DFs of this world... especially those warriors who contributed to or commented on this journal.
Then I’d also like to thank those that contributed to my efforts as a CV by suggesting DDs, dropping by to chat or just by plain being here and posting your art for the world to do with as it would. Really, that’s something we don’t talk about enough: what we do here and why we come here. We make things and break things and craft a bit of ourselves into words/pixels and hope it takes. Hope it co

In no particular order: LadyMurasaki1 and the two others she mentioned in her response, RageOfFluffy and akrasiel. Also, jade-pandora, hopeburnsblue, Serendiipitii, and toffeesmile. And then there's chromeantennae, TwilightPoetess, and IrrevocableFate. Just to name a few. I'm sure I've accidentally missed one or two (my apologies!), but I hope this list is helpful. Like you, my faves are pretty representative of whose work I often enjoy.
As for your other question, well, wow, if I could meet just one IRL? That's impossible to answer. I've met so many amazing people here, I can't play favorites like that. I'd love to meet so many, both writers and visual artists alike!!!
