THE PROSE POEM: 6 week online poetry workshop

As a poetic form the prose poem is still in its youth and invites experimentation.

This course is about participating in the prose poem experiment by writing your own.

You post a prose poem or a revised draft of one weekly.

Your teacher posts discussions on the prose poem in particular and on poetry in general.

He then shows you what in your draft works as a poem and, perhaps, what doesn’t.

You use these comments week by week to advance your skill as a prose poet.

Required text: Models of the Universe, editors Stuart Friebert and David Young, Oberlin College Press, 1995.
