Poetry and Obsession

This online poetry class will focus on the idea of obsession as a driving force for writing poetry - what you, as a poet, are interested in in terms of subject, style, forms, and even research or archival work. We will explore obsession as a poetic concept, and read example poems/poets and interrogate how obsession can be a catalyst for generating writing.
