I found myself diving down one of those writing rabbit holes yesterday morning as I began exploring some of the “add-ons” that are now available in Google Drive. One of the free programs — WebSequenceDiagrams — creates flowcharts, with a little sequential coding.
I wondered if there was a way to write a poem in a flowchart format? Could the ideas of the poem be represented visually and with connections back and forth? So, I gave it a go.
From A to B and Back Again: A Flowchart of a Poem
This verse emerged
as I went in reverse …
from ideas
to words
to poems
to publishing
to comments
to collaboration
to poems
to words
to ideas
all the way back to where I first started,
opening the door here
for you.
Interesting, eh? But does it work as a poem? I’m not sure the diagram flows exactly as I had it in mind, and that might be limited by the free version of the add-on, as much as my own lack of understanding flow charts. Still … intriguing possibilities.
Peace (in the visual),
Kevin
I like writing rabbit holes. What a great experiment and it worked.
You never cease to amaze me at the things you will try with your left-brain. Collaborations, comments, words, poems, and on and on your creativity flows. Thanks for linking up!
Kevin, I am equally amazed as is Margaret by how you are always stretching to try more and see where it takes you. Enjoyed following your meandering thoughts today.
