We will read and write poetic forms that reflect and respond to themselves. Using mirror and contrapuntal poems by Jamaal May, Rita Dove, and Tarfia Faizullah, we will consider how these forms shift meaning and depth.
Samaa Abdurraqib, a certified Maine Master Naturalist and Executive Director of Maine Humanities, is the author of Towards a Retreat and editor of From Root to Seed: Black, Brown and Indigenous Poets Write the Northeast.
This workshop is Saturday May 16 from 10:00am - 12:00pm at the Congregational Church in Camden.
