Exit Strategies: A Craft Talk with Chet'la Sebree
Poetry at Bennington—Fall 2024
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC | A poem is only as strong as all its parts; however, we often put particular pressure on its final lines. Does the poem close with a mic drop? A graceful bow? In this craft conversation, we’ll discuss methods and techniques for how to end a poem. Participants are encouraged to bring a poem for which they’d like to rethink its ending.
