I'm not a poet, but I truly loved my poetry writing classes once upon a time, and what you learned seems helpful for all types of writing.

I love the idea of the exploded moment, living in the metaphor until something dangerous and/or unexpected reveals itself.<br />Stay dangerous!<br />Best,<br />MattAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375684657483536810.post-88935631586925073002010-09-03T08:03:55.491-05:002010-09-03T08:03:55.491-05:00Irene, what a thoughtful and useful post.

But I think once in a while we're allowed to let a hint of wisdom creep or leak out at the end, yes? With restraint? <br /><br />I also like the concept of the exploding moment. I've heard of the expanded one, but this is cooler. Have a great weekend, hopefully not chopping off too many great lines (I'm in major revision mode these weeks, so cutting is a theme...)Jeannine Atkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886966069866356470noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375684657483536810.post-18907807773543253562010-09-02T22:44:55.753-05:002010-09-02T22:44:55.753-05:00Thanks so much for the info!
