First day of poetry workshop went well. The "Swan of Bees" exercise got them loosened up. Then we did "lies," or "things that aren't true." The kids were eager and full of energy, though some wrote a single line in the time that it took others to fill an entire page. Tomorrow we will do poetic apologies.

Silliman writes about Ken Irby today in his blog. Ken lives about 500 yards from me in Lawrence. We often end up getting to campus about the same time and migrating over to Border's in the late afternoon, following a parallel but separate trajectory. Ken's apartment, in which I have only been one time, is crammed with huge piles of cds and books laying on the floor and on tables.
