Tony Hoagland

And so that can be one good way.

Another way is just if I'm reading something and a line pops out at me, or if I'm reading a certain poet, Wanda Coleman or Tony Hoagland or someone else, And I was just like, wow, I really love that poem.

I want to write my own take on a poem like that.

And so I may be inspired that way.

So...

I mentioned Eric Morago earlier in the workshop that I've been with him and how some of the prompts he's been giving have helped me to generate new work.

And this last weekend, the prompt that he gave us was this Tony Hoagland poem called Dickhead, where...

Basically, Tony took a word from his childhood, from like going through puberty, becoming in the world, like becoming a man, like in the world of boys, becoming a man.

Yep.

Uh, thanks to our incredible sponsors, Aquarius Home Services, your local authorized dealer for Kennetico Water Treatment Systems, OnX Maps, State Farm with Tony Hoagland, and Great Clips.
