Tmesis, Isocolons & Hyperbole, Oh my! Revitalizing as Revision
May 28 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm EDT
As poets we are always looking to refresh our language and invigorate our lines. During this class we will study techniques and examples in mentor texts, and we will apply them in real time to our works, with the goal of adding to our collective poetry toolboxes and inspiring us to revisit our work with joy and excitement.
Preparation: Bring a few of your poems, stanzas, or several lines you will use to apply new poetic techniques in real time.
