Want to write your own poems but don’t know where to start? Though all of us have the potential to write great poetry, building a toolkit of how poetic composition can be used makes the process easier, and we may even surprise ourselves with what we can achieve. This two-hour experiential and non-critiquing workshop will cover key poetic terms and devices through studying poems by a handful of modern and contemporary poets. Participants will then write new poetry drafts based off prompts provided by the instructor, with all feedback optional. No previous writing experience necessary!
