How do we find the beginning and end of a poem, especially for those Big Idea topics dealing with conflict, war, and grief? How do we enter difficult topics in a way that engages the reader, and how do we avoid that pretty little bow that threatens the conclusions of complex poems? In this workshop, we will look at entry/exit methods in a number of examples, first answering the question, What is this poem about? then analyzing why each author chose their selected entry and exits points within the poem.
