WORKSHOP #3
WRITING OUTSIDE THE BOX: 59 WAYS TO WRITE A POEM
Whether a seasoned or beginning poet, we often find ourselves before a blank page, bartering with language. Sometimes it takes a while before the poem takes on its energy. In this workshop we will explore ways to allow the images to invade us, to uncomplicate the process and let the words find what they have in common. We will explore together the many techniques and perspectives that can open us up to inspiration and take us beyond our ordinary expectations of ourselves.
