Slam Poetry Workshop

On Thursday 19th May, we had a slam poetry workshop with Stephen Murray. The course was really good and interesting. Stephen taught us a new way to write poetry by writing stuff that meant something to us. He got us to write a short poem about what we would do if we met someone we hated. The girls had to write what they would want said to them by someone they liked and the boys had to write their best chat up line. Of wasd hilarious listening to the chat up lines. We then were asked by Stephen to write a poem about something related to us after listening to two poignant poems. We placed them on http://www.inspireland.ie and I worked with Caroline on our poem. I really enjoyed the classes and thought that Stephen really made poetry interesting.
