Huw Lawrence on how he writes a poem

Posted on September 3, 2019April 30, 2024

“However tenuous the relationship between the inspiration and the final poem, that ‘moment’ in which something happened to make you pick up your pen remains your only connection with the obsessive process of writing that followed.”  What lies behind a poem is mysterious. A poem’s ‘inspiration’ is often unexpected and sometimes barely reflected in the…

“The best way to write a poem is underwater. The sounds of the world, of other people are muffled. Only their underbellies and limbs ripple through the water.” Geometric lines repeat themselves along the bottom of the pool or if you’re lucky enough to be in a clear sea shy fish suddenly appear from behind…

Hanan Issa on how she writes a poem

Posted on August 20, 2019April 30, 2024

“Poetry is the ultimate language ‘glow up’ and it is where I go to try and make sense of the storm”   Dragon-taming?   I started writing about dragons. Not the friendly creatures that let you ride on their backs. I wrote them as wild monsters with blood-stained teeth and fiery tempers. They definitely ate…

Andrew Spragg on how he writes a poem

Posted on August 13, 2019April 30, 2024
