Intermediate | Poems often contain many ghosts: historical, ancestral, former versions of the self. In this workshop, we will explore two strategies for haunting our poems: erasure and collage. We will look at “pure” erasure, wherein the poet removes portions of a text while maintaining the original sequence of the words. For collage, we will examine how poems can incorporate found text that is interwoven with original poetry. Using sample poems as models, participants will compose their own poems incorporating found text.
Beginning Fall 2021, we will be adding select in-person classes back to our course catalog. The majority of our classes will still be offered via Zoom.
If a class says IN-PERSON in its title, it will take place in person at our permanent home in Seattle.
If a class says ASYNCHRONOUS in its title, it will take place on Wet Ink, our asynchronous learning platform.
If a class does not have a marker after its title, it will take place via Zoom.
