24/7: Poetry and the Everyday

Description

From lunch poems to one-day epics, dailiness has long been a vital source of poetic inspiration. In this workshop, we will explore how writers trace rhythms, encounters and units of daily time in their writing. What forms of ‘extreme attention’ (CAConrad) can poetry practice, and to what effect? How might writing help us look for the strange, fruitful or otherwise obscured moments of quotidian existence? Looking at a range of contemporary poetry, we will engage with found materials, uses of journaling, the arts of noticing, lists and lyrics, while doing some writing experiments of our own.
