WWA April workshop - Poetry with Kim Blaeser

THE POWER OF TWO: Creating Metaphors and Woven Stories in Poetry

Experiences, stories, each moment awakens its doppelganger.

As humans we seldom occupy only one space at a time. Our minds busy themselves making connections. Intuitively we recognize similarities and draw parallels. This generative poetry workshop with past Wisconsin Poet Laureate Kimberly Blaeser will emphasize the power of doubling to add energy and engage readers. Through sample pieces, writing prompts, craft exercises, and free writing, it will inspire class participants to discover and weave together overlapping experiences in their poems. Participants will have an opportunity to share excerpts from their drafts.
