I liked how todays workshop played out. It was the second time around and people knew more of what to expect as far as feedback and criticisms go. I can see improvements in many peoples poems, including my own. As far as I go, I got great feedback on my third assignment and I agree with what was said. I'm really comfortable in writing the 2-4 line rhyme stanzas, similar to much of what I listen to musically. I should challenge myself and try to write some unrhymed poetry, something different that is outside my comfort zone. I like using wordplay so maybe I can incorporate some metaphorical prose poetry for our next assignment. It'll be interesting for me to see how I will approach this because it is something I'm not used to or accustomed to writing.
