Tuesday: Poetry Writing [Adult]

Paying close attention to imagery and various poetic forms, this class will encourage participants to generate new work both in and out of the classroom. In this class we will look to each other and other published poets for inspiration as we hone our own poetic voices through the use of writing prompts, discussion, critique, and revision.
