Starts February 13th online (10am-11.30am Irish Standard Time)-Every Friday morning for six weeks.
To write a poem, is to write into a void and to be sure of little, or no financial reward. The writing of a poem exists outside of the time signature of 9-5, the monthly pay check, the grind. And in a world that is currently bloated with content and seething with argument, what an act of resistance it is, to make a small thing, for a small room, and not expect anything in return.
I will be running Poetry as Stewardship online from February 13th for six weeks, including a special poet guest.
Week One (Seed): Starting a Poem: Feeling over Fact
Week Two (Branch): Growing a Poem: On Singularity
Week Three (Formed): Employ your words (and Fire some too)
Week Four (Out of Sight): White Space: The Power of Absence
Week Five (Letting Go): Signing Your Voice: What Makes a Poem Yours
Week Six (Rebirth): Special Guest Poet, Dean Browne
In the spirit of giving, and being cognisant of how challenging things are right now, I have subsidised each place, with the offering costing only €295. This includes six online meetings (all video recorded), all materials and access to an intentional and creative community.
What will we do?
No hacks, no shortcuts, no optimisation. This is about slowing down. This is about reading great poems, trying to make great poems, and spending time with poetry and each other.
