DREAM-MIND POEMS (2023)

Registration includes 4 sessions.

This is not about writing dream poems.  This is about letting the images and thoughts that arise from your dreams free your mind and shape your poems.  And about relaxing the mind (and heart) to let your thoughts flow.  About discovering the rhythms of your own voice.  Here, the image sparks the feeling and the thought; not the other way around.  The image centers the poem.  These will be poems that shake us and move us.

Readings from Reverdy, Huidobro, Paz, Lorca, Rilke, H.D., Langston Hughes, a selection of Chinese poets, Louise Gluck, Matthew Dickman, Henri Cole, Terrance Hayes, and others.
