Exploring Poetic Forms: Experiments and Journeys

Campus contacts

Loosen up your writing and access creativity by exploring imagistic poets, surrealists, beats and beyond. Play with form and language. Try free associative techniques, morning pages, cut ups, erasures and mesostics. All levels welcome.

We will write observational "thing poems," a la Rilke, learn how to do Hayes' golden shovel, Joe Brainard's "I remember" technique and more. From the traditional to the more experimental, this class will offer inspiration and access to the generativity of your own writing practice.
