You will learn the same curriculum as our on-campus students
In this course, we will study the building blocks of poetry in an attempt to create our own poetic responses to the world around us. Each week we will try to understand how poets do this—one, by reading established poets and two, by writing our own beautiful, meaningful, and pleasure-giving poems. You will compose, revise, and reimagine your own poems while providing thoughtful feedback to your peers. Through reading and writing we will explore and practice the technical aspects of form, process, and subject while also trying to get to the mysterious creation of art. Contemporary poetry will be emphasized with a particular focus on ecopoetics. Applies to Environmental Writing & Rhetoric Minor.
