The Japanese verse form, haiku, is familiar to poets worldwide—but Paul has gone further, creating compact forms like the marinet, beiku, tankard, and kafkard. In this informal session, he’ll share how constraints can spark creativity, drawing on inspiration from Oulipo, the Paris-based Workshop of Potential Literature (1960–present).
After short readings from his published work, Paul will invite attendees to experiment with these invented forms, offering a playful alternative to yet more haiku. We’ll close the session with readings of the new poems created on the spot.
As always, bring your poetry, music, comedy, and voice for our open mic and mob karaoke. Let’s make it an afternoon of invention, laughter, and unexpected performance
