This this this. I’ll never forget in college when my mother—gently and lovingly—offered that not every poem I wrote had to reference my eating disorder. Changed the game for me. And as always, @sheer_awe ushers us to get it from the soul.https://twitter.com/sheer_awe/status/1109928036152107009 …

A common worry I hear from students is that they feel like they need to tackle EVERYTHING in 1 poem. ALL of racism or sexism or illness (or all 3, you overachievers). But—weird example—if you want to write about your father, owner of a vast apple orchard, start with one apple.
