Most of us hope that our words will be received by a reader or audience with impact and intention. That our poetry will convey the rhythms of our heart, the music we hear in the inner ear. This workshop takes participants through a series of discussions and exercises on how to: - write for the “ear”, - use rhythm and sound to enhance meaning; - and edit with the reader / audience in mind.
Es Foong (Waffle Irongirl) is a poet, flash fictionista and spoken word performer living on the land of the Wurundjeri people. Their poems have appeared in Australian Poetry Journal, Rabbit Poetry, Kalliope X and the Best of Australian Poems 2022 anthology. They have performed on poetry stages including La Mama Poetica and Queensland Poetry Festival 2022. On-stage, they are the poetic analogue of heavy-metal karaoke. Off-stage, they eat identity labels for breakfast. They live online at waffleirongirl.com.
