8776. Soft World Building in Speculative Poetry
Moderator: Kory Vance
Poetry elevates us from animal to person, from electric currents to connected souls, from unbridled meat and instinct to...er, well, there's no getting out of that last one. Speculative poetry lets the reader escape as in fiction while connecting with themselves. Soft-world building inside poetry immerses readers without overcrowding. This panel can discuss the art of revealing just-enough of a new world for poetry to shine.
