NOTE: The eleven high-school students (all juniors) were
nearing the
end
of a one-trimester seminar on poetry
at the
Friends' Central School near
Philadelphia, taught by Liza Ewen. They visited the
Kelly Writers House on May 12, 2009, and
spent
the morning meeting with these six
poets.
The poets were asked by Al
Filreis to choose just one short poem--a poem that would
somehow convey something significant about themselves as a poet--and to teach that
poem in 20 minutes. PennSound is grateful to Ms. Ewen and to Friends' Central School
for participating in this project, and to the Kelly Writers House for hosting it.
