IDSnews.com:

"Drunk and Unpublished, 'an unofficial poetry organization,' conducted their second session of guerilla poetry Monday night. Their target audience: Wal-Mart patrons. "

I like this a lot in theory.
In fact a couple of years back I was really into the idea of getting some street theater stuff happening.
I didn't.
But for a while I thought I would...

anyway, this does get me thinking...
this and my recent time spent in the galleria.
If you could get a group of poets we could scatter around the whole place and read poems at random positions inside the mall at regular intervals for say, an hour or so...
Do a short piece, move along, and say, 5-10 minutes later do another.
Seems like that would be fairly effective.

Any ideas folks?

You'd have to be doing something stupid as well, such as disrobing or quoting Puffy D or something, to get anyone to notice. Maybe if some of the poets resembled Jessica Simpleton...
