Default Danish crib event at Translation

A Danish poem by Tove Ditlevsen is up at Translation with a crib.

Anyone who fancies having a go, is invited to write their own poem based on the crit, and PM it to me. At the end of the week, I’ll post all the versions anonymously, and we’ll try to guess who wrote what.

For an idea of how it goes, the previous Ruiz event is still visible. The challenge in this case is to preserve Ditlevsen's rhymes – or maybe something comparable – since the Danish original is close to English.

A quick reminder – brilliant versions of Tove Ditlevsen’s poem are coming in to me by PM. Please do add your own. The deadline is hypothetically tomorrow, but PM me if you’d like more time. This is a wholly informal event.
