Walk the Line with Lex Orgera
What is a good line of poetry? For that matter, what is a good line break? In this workshop we’ll explore various theories about the poetic line and where and why to break—or not break—one. So many choices: line length versus prose poem; enjambment versus end stop. And what do breath, rhythm, and image have to do with it? We’ll discuss ideas, look at examples, and do some practice exercises to explore the choices we make in service of walking the line.
