“Poetry is language at its most distilled and most potent.” Rita Dove
You don’t have to be a master poet yourself, but you can get in-depth, encouraging feedback from one and from supportive classmates as well. Just bring your works-in-progress or the optional weekly assignment. Each meeting will begin with the discussion of a notable poem—all supplemented by examinations into poetic forms, the art of revision and creative tactics for extracting the hidden gold of your imagination. For all poets, wherever you are on the journey.
