Liz Louie wrote a new blog post Not Poetry….? in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 5 months ago

One thing that has me unhappy is that I have already taken two poetry workshops, and therefore need to take a workshop that isn’t poetry. Moving away from what makes me comfortable has always been something I t […]
Hannah Fahy wrote a new blog post Underwater in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 5 months ago

It’s spring break, and it’s past my bedtime, but I had to write this. I think my blog posts are getting crazier by the second, but stick with me here. What could I do to make my poetry sound like it’s under […]
Lidabel A. Guzman Avila wrote a new blog post If…Write. in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 5 months ago

If you’re leaving for spring break, write about going home. If you’re staying, write on the green about the silver wind. If you’re coming back for the rest of the semester, write to tell us about the haunting […]
Kyle Navratil edited the blog post The Most Important Word: Hermeneutics in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 5 months ago

This past Saturday I delivered a TEDx talk here at SUNY Geneseo and I wanted to post the written transcript for those who couldn’t be there. I will only post the first third on here and then leave the rest as a […]
Hannah Fahy wrote a new blog post Poetic Obsessions in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 5 months ago

I write a lot more than ever gets shown to anyone. I think that’s how it should be, not everything needs to make it to a final draft, the act of writing itself is good to practice. However, I’ve noticed what my […]
Jessica Bansbach wrote a new blog post Zines in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 5 months ago

I’m surprised that in such a savvy course such as this, we’ve somehow totally circumvented the subject of zines. Zines are small, largely individually produced “magazines” (though many, if not most, tend to be […]
Zachary Vila wrote a new blog post Perspective Writing/Reading in Poetry in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 6 months ago

So recently I’ve been in the planning stages of my Great Day presentation and in doing so I’ve believe I have found another source for poetry; what I’m speaking of is perspective. Almost every human being has the […]
Liz Louie wrote a new blog post Source from Written Works in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 6 months ago

I like to think that I have a fairly full and diverse bookshelf, both at college and at home. Some of these titles can easily reflect in my work, some of them can’t. Each has a certain aspect that can be viewed a […]
Lidabel A. Guzman Avila wrote a new blog post Poet Ex Machina in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 6 months ago

I don’t want to compare poets to machines: spewing out verses like the Lamron printer spews out newspapers. I just mean to express that our brains never stop creating. I have a notes app file dedicated to […]
Hannah Fahy wrote a new blog post Poets as Cameras in the group The Contemporary Poem: 6 years, 6 months ago

My very first class here at Geneseo in fall of 2016 was ENGL 203 Reader & Text: Adaptation & Discipline with Professor Harrison. The class was all about works of literature that are adapted over and over by other […]
