It looks like I'll have the time and money to go to the West Chester University Poetry Conference, so I'm starting to get my application together. The problem is which seminar to put as my first choice: among others, Glynn Maxwell is teaching "The Poetic Line," Mark Jarman "Narrative," Kim Addonizio "Experimental Form," and Sam Gwynn "Forms of Repetition." I'd really like to work with Sam, but I'm not good with those things, and I can prove it: here's a sestina, a villanelle, and a double ballade, all metrical only by charity.
Maybe I should try to write a triolet a day … nah.
I've added Rebel Edit as a singleton in the link list: anybody know a Cuban glose I could translate?
