Abstract
This course builds on material from Introduction to Poetry Writing, with a special emphasis on poetic form. Understanding that all poems make use of form, our discussions will focus primarily on metrics, stanzaic patterns, and received forms such as the sonnet, sestina, and pantoum. We will consider both visual and aural aspects of form: the poem on the page and the poem read aloud. We will read a large sampling of poetry, from Anglo-Saxon verse to contemporary lyrics, and we will compose poems in a variety of forms, experimenting with structure, shape, texture, rhythm, and sound.
