SLIDING SCALE:
Class Description
Hermit crabs have evolved to scavenge and occupy abandoned vessels to protect their soft bodies. As they grow, they need to find larger and larger vessels to call home. Hermit crab poems find their homes in traditionally non-poem texts: a crossword puzzle, a text message, a recipe, Ikea decorations, a letter, an obituary, an eye test chart, medical forms, the possibilities are endless. In this workshop, participants will explore the works of Kristen Cussen, Sean Lovelace, KB Brookins, Paul Violi, Soulstuf, and others before experimenting with their own hermit crab creations.
