What is Science Fiction Poetry?
Yesterday I thought I was being innovative. I was thinking, what if I write a science fiction themed poem? I love science fiction and I love writing poems so why not combine the two? I bet nobody has thought of that yet. One click on google and my dreams of starting an SF poetry movement was crushed. There is an SF poets movement. In fact, it has been in existence way before I was even born. 1978 to be exact. Maybe even older, the Science Fiction Poetry Association or SFDA was founded in 1978. That leads one to think that the movement has been moving way before that, as most movements usually does. Confused? Suffice it to say that SF poetry is way older than I am. What is Science Fiction Poetry? We all know what Science Fiction is. And I'm sure you have had occasion to read a poem or two way before you ever picked up a twilight book. What comes to mind when you see these two together in one sentence? Personally I think it could be the future...
