Night Writer: Singing about the Dark Times Accessories Follow the Yellow Brick Road:In this class, well leap forward in the ways that Brechts poem encourages us to sing about the darkness. Well write the known grief of the world, and its remedies. Well explore the delights and perils of literal darkness. Well write poems of resistance and resilience, inspired by broad explorations of themes well known to poets: the moon, night life, insomnia, dreams and more. This class is mostly generative in nature, so expect to do as much reading
