Having just written and published a book-length poem, sequences interest me. What happens when one poem leads to another? It’s kind of a narrative, but not only. A little like stringing a necklace, but also making a web. So I’m looking forward to teaching a one-day seminar on the poem sequence at WriterHouse in Charlottesville, VA, on April 26, 2014, from 1 to 4 PM.
We’ll be talking about how linked poems work their magic in the poems of Anne Carson, C.D. Wright, Seamus Heaney and others. If you’re working on a sequence of your own, come join the conversation!
Here’s how to sign up.
