There’s poetry everywhere…on your wall, in your breakfast cereal and psyllium husk, certainly in the refrigerator and on the dashboard of your car. Let’s find it together in a fun, interactive, and generative workshop where you will craft poems out of nothing…or anything, if you prefer. Writer’s block doesn’t even exist when you realize that everything is a poem. P.S. They said this description could be up to 100 words but I stopped at 84 because less is more. Let’s learn from that too.
