Here's a game we used to play as kids. Everyone adds a new section to the bottom of the image till we get a really long weird picture collage. The sections should match up so the picture flows, for example, the blue of the girl's shirt could become sky in the next section. It's important to overlap down only, please.

Kathy has suggested that we have a series of poems, linked similarly, running alongside the images.

"Maybe integrate poetry into the stream? Write haiku, and each haiku must begin with the last line of the hiaku preceding it? Overlapped, like the pics? Just a thought. Something like:

oak leaf lies on rail
spring breezes blow it away
destination found

then when another pic is added, the next haiku would be inspired by that pic but would have to start "destination found" ...somehow...maybe....baby...maybe....not.
"

I like it! Kathy's haiku is beside the image that inspired it now and there's room for more, so all poets are invited to add to the scroll, working backwards if they wish since Kathy's poem is about halfway down Series 2.

We got some poems that weren't haiku on series 1 so how about on series 1 - any form, and on series 2 - haiku.

Thanks to Jerry for some of his web space for this.
