News at Eleven: [Francis the Poet] brings his dog Daisey,

a bucket of chalk and poetry books. He rides a skateboard or drives his car from spot to spot--tagging even the far edges of the university.

"It takes a lot more planning than you'd think," he says of finding suitable places for the poems.

On a printed a map of the university, he circles good spots to chalk the ground. He keeps mental notes about slabs of concrete he has seen, and what poems would fit on each.
