I may do one or two of them for NaPoWriMo, but my first poem, on the prompt word 'volcano' is written. Tomorrow's prompt is 'oceans', so we'll see how I get on with that.Colin Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191911380244230114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9857818.post-85290230071134485322013-04-01T19:42:48.957+01:002013-04-01T19:42:48.957+01:00I'll be working on poems for my year as Canal ...I'll be working on poems for my year as Canal Laureate, and some for my collaborative book with Martin Malone, Fireships. But that's just what I *intend* to do. Which means that very likely, all the poems which come to my mind will be about teabags or hysterectomies.

I'd recommend it as a great place to start.<br /><br />If you're a Poetry Society member, I've published an article on the prose poem form in Poetry News and last summer an article on the state of the prose poem in Poetry Review. If you aren't a member and would like to read them, simply provide me with an email address, and I'll send them to you. <br /><br />Let me know how you get on with it! Good luck!Carrie Etterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09617695047663413425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9857818.post-39606629106544596212013-04-01T11:16:26.507+01:002013-04-01T11:16:26.507+01:00Your post reminded me that you are known for your ...Your post reminded me that you are known for your interest in, support of, the prose poem. A form I have never understood - either it's a poem or it's prose, get a grip! So this may be the month during which i get a grip, on the prose poem. i would like to understand it, appreciate it so thank you for your directions to helpful websites. Who knows where this will lead.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845219774370456591noreply@blogger.com
