Kasper congrats -hey do you get a prize??:-) -----Original Message----- From: Poetryetc: poetry and poetics [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of kasper salonen Sent: 18 December 2008 21:48 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: a win Helsinki university's english dept held a poetry competition last month, and I entered.. and it looks like I won it. I heard it off the cuff from someone who thought I already knew, made me wobbly for a second. I'm still pretty wobbly actually. I've never entered let alone won a poetry contest before. there will be information about it on the university webpage, but knowing their techs it won't be for a while. here's a link the the poem that did it. http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dfr8jjpv_81cq4kcjgv&hl=en people have been congratulating me on facebook all damn day, it makes me feel.. I suppose grateful & flattered, but really it's just a little feeling of confusion or disquiet. for no reason I can really pinpoint. is there some condition known as post-victory depression? haha. I'm chuffed, anyway. KS No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG - http://www.avg.com Version: 8.0.176 / Virus Database: 270.9.19/1855 - Release Date: 18/12/2008 10:16
