In this generative-based, poetry-making workshop, we’ll explore the power of poem-making to metabolize aggression out of our bodies through the transmutation of experience, insight, and exchange, to reclaim and restore our humanity and more in both the public imagination and our own physical bodies. Through our engagement with each other and collective and individual processes of making, we will work toward a resolution of the base metal of violent aggression into something golden, something which offers light, recognition, direction, sustenance.

 This workshop is part of our Poetry Festival.
