Give new life to old texts by writing found poetry, which is poetry composed by cutting up and/or manipulating preexisting texts and turning them into new poems. We'll look at examples of found poems for inspiration, and then we'll have time to craft our own poems using would-be-discarded materials. We will provide some materials, but feel free to bring anything you have that you might want to use: newspapers, magazines, books, appliance instructions, product packaging, anything with words on it will work! This workshop is open to writers of any experience level!
