Exclusively Available in the Writerly Love Membership Community
Are you concerned with the current events of the world? Do you want to criticize legislation? Support a social movement? Spotlight a forgotten moment in history? As an artform, poetry has a long history of political engagement. It is used to witness, process, comment, and critique; and has become a choice form of writerly intervention. This workshop will explore various forms of political poetry, from the comical to the critical. Come prepared to channel fire through your fingertips; and, if time permits, to share what you create. Grab a news article, a snippet of legislation, or a piece of political writing you would like to intervene.
“I have the beginnings of a couple promising poems. I’ll keep working on them. Thanks for creating the prompts and space.” —Workshop Participant
