Perhaps it's because I haven't found a satisfying way to talk about them. After finishing a poem, I feel it is as much a mystery to me as it is to another reader. The writer and I shared certain experiences, but we are two different people. Workshop discussions feel different as they are about the nuts and bolts of the writing, and they take place during the process of writing.<BR/><BR/>I think the recording will be archived on the radio station website, so I will try to post the recording on my blog, for whoever is interested.Jee Leonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01979179110231643931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19954746.post-42224201213266119562007-05-28T11:06:00.000-04:002007-05-28T11:06:00.000-04:00adding on the greg's questions, do you think there...adding on the greg's questions, do you think there's a difference between talking about your poems to an audience that can't talk back (eg radio show), and discussing your poems with pple who can and do (eg workshop)?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19954746.post-7710955638189997672007-05-27T22:40:00.000-04:002007-05-27T22:40:00.000-04:00hey jee!! is the recording available overseas? hah...hey jee!! <BR/><BR/>is the recording available overseas? haha..<BR/><BR/>and! your newly uploaded photo looks pretty dynamic! got a photographer? just that your face ain't in the light.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19954746.post-83495179606688327742007-05-27T19:47:00.000-04:002007-05-27T19:47:00.000-04:00But isn't there a way of talking about poetry that...But isn't there a way of talking about poetry that isn't simplifying paraphrasing? What about when people say things like "This is what it was like for me to write this poem..." or "This is what it was like for me to read this poem..." or "This is what *I* make of this poem (though others may see it differently), and here is where my experience of the poem comes from..."? <BR/><BR/>What is it like for you to read commentary on your poems that people post to this blog? Are there some types of commentary that do you good, and other types of commentary that don't? And if so, how would you characterize the unhelpful and helpful types of commentary?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
