I have a book buried somewhere written by a woman who runs a business helping other women make their dreams come true. Most of it is 'teach yourself to think outside the box' and 'never accept someone else's definition of you' type stuff all strung together and I never finished it, but I wonder if maybe there is a condensed chapter at the end with some magic formula for putting ideas into action?
There is always a tipping point. I think the main thing is getting material in front of people. If you can generate enough 'buzz' you're golden.
What if we simply planted our own rumor? What if we began by slipping something about the 'poetry explosion' into casual conversations? Rumors spread. People talk to other people. We might be able to generate our own internet hoax that boosts something instead of kills it. Poetry guerillas.

PS. If you can, try your hand at giving some of the others a bit of feedback. If you already have, thanks, can you do some more?
