Hi Lisa, (and all...) <br>
<br>
Lisa, thank you for making this art. I'm marveling at the oddly
symmetrical nature of [found poetry.]<br>
<br>
I like how curiously surprising it is... <br>
<br>
..I like how it acknowledges the individuals and the essential
collection of people choosing to play the game..."the players" :<br>

Hello, dear friends.
<div>As your current OSLIST Poet Laureate I wish to continue to
create found poetry, in the practice of one of our late great
past Poet Laureates, Ms. Laurel Doersam.
<div>I sit with a conversation you have had and think about how
it comes apart and fits back together again in a new and
poetic way.</div>
<div>
<div>I enjoy showing you back … yourselves. </div>
<div>Happy reading - Lisa Heft</div>

<div><b>In Honor of the Lurkers</b><br>
________<br>
<br>
Hey…<br>
<br>
I am a lurker and sometimes contributor.<br>
I am one of the frequent lurkers.<br>
I am proud to be a frequent lurker.<br>
Mostly lurk but occasionally comment. <br>
Mostly lurking for many years. <br>
A regular lurker. <br>
Read the list. Daily.<br>
<br>
Mostly silent, sometimes reading, often feeling and holding
space. <br>
<br>
Even trawling through pages and pages of repetitive posts on
the digest format doesn't keep me away. <br>
<br>
Hey - I'm a regular lurker. <br>
I'm a regular lurker and learner.<br>
<br>
I enjoy the constant reminder about the core of OS
principles.<br>
I particularly enjoy the principles of open space as
practiced by the participants:<br>
No admonishments about perceived “off topic” threads,<br>
No shut-downs when (if) there’s a flurry of un-subscriptions
due to the above.<br>
Such a positive list with world wide participants, so great.<br>
I am in love and in debt to this beautiful community.<br>
<br>
Enjoying…learning….practicing…<br>
<br>
Lurk<br>
Hey YES!<br>
Hello<br>
I’m a permanent lurker<br>
Same here.<br>
<br>
It's enlivening to see both the old hands and the new waves
of Open Space lovers.<br>
A cool combination of experienced practitioners and new
comers.<br>
<br>
The experience, curiosity, wisdom and generosity
demonstrated through this list is very important to me, my
work and life. <br>
I love the living wisdom through this OSLIST. <br>
I enjoy the reflections and the enthusiasm. <br>
I enjoy the fresh perspectives offered by REAL OSers.<br>
I feel connected to the community and I get inspiring ideas.<br>
From time to time I cannot resist to send again a tiny
contribution to say hello I’m still there.<br>
<br>
Hi.<br>
Hi!<br>
Hi, everybody!<br>
I do lurk most of the time.<br>
<br>
Sometimes the volume is over my capacity.<br>
I sometimes comment.<br>
<br>
Sometimes I am reading daily, sometimes weekly, sometimes I
do not check for a few months, <br>
and then simply delete the build up.<br>
Applying the law of two feet with my two eyes. <br>
And then I start again<br>
<br>
Definitely a lurker with random bits of input and responses.<br>
<br>
I am a frequent 'participant' in the discussion - but almost
always only in my head. <br>
And I have many very fruitful conversations with you all –
in my head.<br>
I engage in the conversation, try on different responses.<br>
I keep thinking of writing, but then see all the wisdom on
the list and think, that’s it. Why repeat. <br>
I always learn…and I know the next time I have a question
there will always be somebody to help answer it for me.<br>
<br>
Hey,<br>
Heyyyy,<br>
Heeeeey.<br>
Hey everyone, <br>
Here it comes: I am a lurker.<br>
I’m a passionate lurker.<br>
Love to learn while lurking.<br>
<br>
I am always here!<br>
<br>
I appreciate the active participation of some players who
represent the thoughts of many others.<br>
Always appreciate new voices and perspectives as well.<br>
I feel connected to many of the topics that have been shared
here in this group.<br>
<br>
Hey - I'm here too.<br>
I lurk here too.<br>
I lurk a lot.<br>
Me too!<br>
I am an active reader.<br>
I READ every message, and learn a lot! <br>
<br>
Yep, I mostly lurk. <br>
<br>
Gratitude to still be amongst this community. <br>
Grateful for our co-learning.<br>
MASSIVELY GRATEFUL for all I have learned. <br>
Always a grateful and admiring learner. <br>
A learning-by-listening kind of lurk.<br>
<br>
My active participation is in the listening / reading space
at the rim.<br>
Not posting often, but taking in the gifts of this list with
much gratitude and passing them on in the world. <br>
And in applying the principles of practice in my own life a
lot of the time. <br>
<br>
Often I have so many things to do <br>
that I don’t give myself the time to sit down and write a
thorough, well thought reply. <br>
Now that I write this, <br>
I realize that it is not necessary to put the bar that
high. <br>
It does not always have to be of academic quality – <br>
a simple sharing will do, too. <br>
So this is a note to myself.<br>
<br>
Hi!<br>
Hey!<br>
Hey OS List Folks<br>
Another lurker.<br>
I lurk often and read a lot! <br>
<br>
I use the list and the amazing contributions as inspiration
to remind me why I love doing this. <br>
And that there are other ways and people out there <br>
doing things differently.<br>
<br>
I think every single posting leads some us somewhere, even
if those places aren't so obvious. <br>
I especially like when the search is fragile and the outcome
uncertain.<br>
<br>
Thank you for being and doing.<br>
<br>
I am always fascinated by the conversation and learn tons. <br>
Appreciating each kind word or gift exchanged or question
asked.<br>
I love people’s thinking, awarenesses, interests,
divergences on this list. <br>
<br>
I occasionally offer my 2 bits... I guess that's what
happens when interest accrues on my 2 cents over time.<br>
I love the sense of security and support.<br>
<br>
I am curious - how do we really define LURKERS?<br>
I don’t consider myself a lurker. <br>
I don’t hide behind somewhere, ready to pounce. <br>
I have no evil intentions. <br>
I haven't yet gotten used to the modern meaning of "lurker"
and don't ever identify as one. <br>
The definition seems to say that listening isn't active
participation.<br>
I’m no lurker.<br>
I actively participate in reading, listening, and
reflecting.<br>
<br>
Oh thank you for saying that, thank you.<br>
<br>
Lurk!<br>
I am a happy lurker.<br>
<br>
And I am not. I am … a witness.</div>
<div>Fully engaged and fully present.</div>
<div>For what is dialogue? It is someone speaking, and someone
else who is fully listening.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In live os events you see the butterflies.<br>
A silent presence creating Space.<br>
<br>
We are a community working with open space,<br>
Therefore able or learning to be absolutely present<br>
And absolutely invisible.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the affirmation.<br>
Sets a lovely tone. <br>
Really resonates.<br>
<br>
Hi, everybody.<br>
Hello, world. <br>
I lurk, regularly. <br>
I am not ashamed. Sometimes I even post. <br>
Then I lurk. <br>
<br>
Listening has improved my practice for sure!<br>
<br>
Has anyone noticed that it is almost<br>
impossible to say "lurk" rapidly in succession?<br>
Try it:<br>
Lurk lurk lurk. <br>
lurklurklurklurklurklurklurklurklurklurkllkllkkkk.<br>
Argh.<br>
<br>
Ah, I am so glad!<br>
I’m still growing inside. <br>
I’m a lurker and a learner.<br>
I am a listener and a witness.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am very happy to be part of this list. <br>
I like this community.<br>
Keep the work and the words flowing.<br>
<br>
I lurk.<br>
I may well be digging into the vast collective wisdom soon.<br>
<br>
I lurk.<br>
<br>
Whoa, that was hard to say. It feels good to get that off
my chest. <br>
Thanks for listening.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My pleasure.</div>
<div>Listening is my part in the dialogue.<br>
<br>
