How many times have you been put off by a clich\u00e9d image, simile, or metaphor like these examples? Good poems make readers feel something rather than just impart information. This is not always easy as unlike other artforms, in poetry, language is the primary medium. How can we make the familiar seem fresh, embodied, and authentic? How can we use language in a way to have the maximum effect on the reader, to make the reader feel something and think for themselves, rather than just telling them what to think? Learn to make the readers visualise your poems. Let them feel your words, not just hear them.<\/p>\n

In this workshop we learn to create images that are authentic and unique to us, with just our use of language. In this workshop, we learn how to avoid reproducing clich\u00e9s and create images that are strong, memorable, and authentic.<\/p>\n
