Poetry Writing

This course introduces students to the craft of writing poetry.  We will study the elements and conventions of the craft and apply them to our own work; we will read published examples of contemporary poems that exemplify the current state of the art form; and we will cultivate the habit of writing, revising, and performing our own work. Much time and attention will be given to composition methods, technique, and style.

Course Syllabus

"Poetry is the art of surprising yourself with your own words."
--Kevin Clark
