Mushrooms
What special powers do you possess? What are the important lessons you overlooked in the moment? What haunts you? What do you remember?
Caught in this moment between the end of the school year and the start of Write Across America, the Just Write Virtual Writing Group (aka the Rebel Cartographers) brings poems to the group for our writing inspiration. Here are some of the poems we brought to share:
- Mushrooms by Sylvia Plath
- What You Missed That Day You Were Absent from Fourth Grade by Brad Aaron Modlin
- Lorca’s The Song of the Barren Orange Tree by Jeffrey McDaniel
- Remember by Joy Harjo (inspired by this interview)
Lift a line, an image or metaphor, or question from any or all of these poems and write!
