We will be reading poems from Marc Harshman, Nikki Giovanni, Frank X Walker, Tom Andrews, and Irene McKinney. In these close readings, the focus will be on the elements of storytelling and place that bring these pieces to life alongside discussions particular to the stereotypes of Appalachia and the Rustbelt Midwest, which is very familiar to Ohio. From here we’ll pivot into generative discussions with a space for participants to generate their own poems/short prose pieces, with time allotted to share for those who wish to share.About the PoetPoet Torli Bush is from Webster Springs, West Virginia.
