  • Course
  • 13 Lessons

Banned: Akhmatova, Whitman, Ginsberg, García Lorca, and yes, even Silverstein. In this workshop, you’ll read them all! Focusing on craft techniques that foster expression—the long line, repetition, vivid imagery, and the power of reading aloud—you’ll exercise your right to write, creating poems that honor the giants on whose shoulders we stand: men and women who refused to be silenced.
