About this event
### Calling Poets and Poetry Lovers! The personal is political is poetic. Join Western Dane Democracy Project members on Friday, September 25, at 6:30 at Fitchburg Barriques for an informal, sitting-around-the-table, poetry share-out. Come prepared to share 2-3 poems that you wrote or by other poets that resonate with you. For those who want a writing prompt: try writing a prose poem. Here's the a description of a prose pome: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/education/glossary/prose-poem And here's an example:

Participating poets can let the group know whether they want feedback or just attentive listening. This is a low-pressure opportunity to celebrate an important form of self-expression! This event is open to the public.
