5749. Imaginative Verse: A Reading of Speculative Poets
Speculative poetry has been gaining in popularity at science fiction literary conventions across the United States and the world. It does not describe our contemporary life as literary poetry does, but speaks of other worlds, times, and tropes similar to speculative fiction authors. This poetry can be in any form or free verse that literary poetry comes in. The difference is its content is speculative. Please join Poet Laureate Wendy Van Camp and local speculative poets to hear their imaginative verse. Moderated by Wendy Van Camp.
Wendy Van_Camp, Jean-Paul L. Garnier, Denise Dumars, Neil Citrin, , Nancy Taylor
