Superhero Poetics (V)

Everyone has an origin story, and it can be real, fantastical, or a combination of both. Are you a superhero, villain, or observer of your own story? And if you could interview Batman or Superman, what answers would they give? In this craft talk, participants will learn to wear the “S” on their own chests as they explore and generate their own superhero myths through direct address, confessional poems, and persona. We'll discuss poems by Lucille Clifton, Terrance Hayes, and more.
