The Life Poetic

I've been dipping into Writing the Life Poetic by Sage Cohen and I can certainly connect with some of her anecdotes. Such as '...being caught driving under the influence of poetry...' If I have a poem composting in my mind I have to make sure I concentrate on the road ahead. It's tempting to reach for the pencil and notebook, while steering with my knees!
I think the book has some exercises which will be useful for the poetry workshops. If the group don't bring work-in-progress I need to have something up my sleeve.
