WORKSHOP PROMPT:

“When the White Page Is not the Homeland of a Poem” 

In this poetry workshop, we will begin by remembering that the root of poiesis means “to make” or “to create.” In other words, writing a poem is, in essence, to make something. We will discuss ways that our writing process can begin beyond the limitations of the 8 ½’ x 11” page. We will think conceptually, visually, and imaginatively. For example, we will consider ways that the FORM of our poems can be inspired by communal or historical visual art practices. And/or we will think about form as way to create feeling—how do we create a visual experience that strengthens the language? We’ll consider all that’s available to us, visually: space, color, texture, dimension, and so on. In the spirit of sovereignty and joy, we will allow our poems to breathe and take up as much physical space as they need. Most of all, this will be a time to make something together!
