How to Take Your Poem from "Oh, That's Nice" to "Oh, My Gosh!"

We will use the four weekly sessions to develop your poems in surprising new ways. Each week during the session, we will closely read and analyze your poems, providing positive feedback as well as constructive criticism. Then you will be given a personalized assignment, in anticipation of the next session, which will inspire you to explore that poem in different and sometimes startling new ways. The goal is to reveal how a poem can grow, both within itself and as an element of a larger, more layered work.
