Poet as Radio: Writing from Intuition

A 5-week online poetry workshop designed for folks with a wide variety of experience with poetry and with a keen interest in spirituality and the occult. This course is more than a workshop—it’s a journey into the unknown, where you’ll discover hidden messages and ideas both from within yourself and the outside world. Through chance, divination, games, and ritual, you’ll learn to trust your intuition and let your spontaneity guide your writing.

Participants will engage in surrealist games to encourage spontaneity, explore the poet as a receiver of intuitive messages, and incorporate techniques like cut-up methods, tarot readings, and rituals into their writing practice. Readings will include works by Jack Spicer, Hoa Nguyen, and CA Conrad among others. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to deepen your poetic practice, this workshop will provide you with the tools and inspiration to transform your writing. Join us to tune into the frequencies of your creativity and uncover hidden messages within and emanating from the world outside!
