A Poet’s Toolbox
SATURDAY, january 13TH
9:00AM-12:00PM CST
arts & literature laboratory
Why do some poems make your heart skip while others leave you cold? In this class, we’ll explore some of the building blocks of good poetry, including voice, metaphor, imagery, and the line.
We’ll read and discuss poems that embody these tools and engage in writing prompts designed to help you bring these elements into your own work.
You’ll have a chance to read your new poems aloud and receive positive feedback from the instructor and other students.
This class is designed for those who are newer to poetry as well as more experienced poets who want to brush up on craft.
