Writing Poetry From the Inside Out

“Writing Poetry From the Inside Out”

Here’s a great book I’ve been enjoying lately. I came across it highly recommended, and it doesn’t disappoint,

There are 981 blocks of four words in the rear of the book. Choose one. Write sentences, line fragments, phrases - anything - and use all four words.

This is a “poem skeleton,” as the author calls it.

Even writing out one block a day can yield great things.

I have been doing so for nearly a month. And then, today. a wonderful poem came out of my head.

Not ready if I’m ready to share it yet.
