Examine lyric, narrative and prose poems and the poetic devices employed in each. These include use of metaphor, imagery, assonance, consonance, line and stanza breaks, and how these meld with content/poet’s intent. Forms and metrics may be introduced. During the last 15 minutes of class, write poems from a prompt. Bring a revised version of this poem or a new poem, if preferable, to give and receive feedback with a partner during the next session.
