      Another one by her that’s really good. Food can be arousing.

    Oh hell yeah. That was a slow cooking osso bucco but by the end it was perfectly done.

        If you haven’t in a while, do it. No one knows what the future holds. Get a nice bottle of red to go with it, if that’s your thing. Make it something to remember.

        In a way, to me, that exact kind of personally involved, day-long, intensive, part art and part chemistry act of cooking is a celebration of living, and somehow we’re still alive. It’s all the reason you need.

          I will. I have some nice red already and I’ll make some osso bucco. It sounds like perfect lazy Sunday food.

    This one hits me twice.

    Once for the beautiful sentiment, and again because I work with architects, and really, simply, cannot stand any of them.

A community to celebrate published and OC works of poetry.


Welcome to !poetry


Guidelines & Community Rules

In addition to the general rules of lemmy.world:

Published Poetry

1a: Poetry posts should include the title and the author, when the author is known.

O.C. Poetry

2a: Sharing original poetry is encouraged, but it must be preceded by the tag “[OC].”

2b: If an [OC] post is requesting feedback, it should also follow with the “[FB]” tag. It would look like the following example:
[OC] [FB] Nothing Gold Can Stay

Feedback

All feedback should be given in good faith.

3a: All [FB] requests should be met with comments constructive in nature. It is okay to dislike parts of a poem, but make sure to explain why you feel that way.

3b: Feedback does not need to be extraordinary in nature. Simply expressing how a work makes you feel is often enough.

3c: Use the honor system. When you receive good feedback, return it in kind to another author. Everyone appreciates knowing their work is being read and appreciated.

As this community develops, these guidelines may be adjusted.


Formatting Help
Work in progress

To create a line break, use two spaces at the end of a line.

To create empty space, type  . Use four of these at the beginning of a line to create a standard indent.

UPDATE:
Some methods of access do not format markdown correctly. I am currently testing various apps and web interfaces to see what does and does not retain formatting.

In the interim, it is encouraged to post text poetry as you normally would, but to include a link at the beginning or end of the post with access to a website or image that retains the formatting as intended.


Other Poetry Communities
Poetry lovers unite! In the style of the fediverse, multiple poetry communities have arisen, and will continue to rise. I will try to keep a list here of communities across instances that are worth checking out!
