Explore the idea of poetic voice. Not only will we analyze and develop tone, sonics, metaphor, and syntax, but also voices through personae—and through historical, cultural, and even pop cultural lenses. Read and discuss examples, regularly workshop the poems you submit, and put what we've studied into practice through writing prompts. Focus on the sounds of poems, their delivery and discuss performative aspects as well.
