Day One of Workshop
Day one of workshop was a bit scarier than I thought it would be. People were very to the point if they liked your poem or not. I suppose everyone has their own opinions but I feel like its just going to be embarrassing when I go and someone picks apart every part of my poem telling me if it makes sense, or, doesn't make sense. Do poems even really need to make sense? Especially when using your Muse like we are told to do all semester.. my muse makes the most random things come out on paper that sometimes, make no sense but I didn't even think it really had to? Today in class we discussed how someones poem didn't really make sense and it just made me think of all this, what if mine doesn't make sense? Does that make it a bad poem? Some people wrote very in depth, really showing emotion and I am not sure I want to do that to share with the class. Actually, I don't even believe I am that creative to do so. This whole workshop stuff seems way too intimidating to me right now, hopefully since I do not do mine until Tuesday my nerves will settle and I will feel better about sharing my poetry to the class.
