What we’re about
This is a weekly workshop group for anyone interested in getting some critical feedback on their work from others who read and write poetry. It's also a way to get poets and writers in the DC area together to meet and to share and discuss our influences and our own work. At each meeting members will share a poem and receive helpful comments so they can revise. Bring several copies of your poem.

Hey Poetry Lovers!
So this group is on a roll.
So, here's the plan: every other week, from 12pm to around 2pm we meet at the Capital One Café in Chinatown.
This is all about our love for poetry, sharing our work, and just enjoying each other's company. Whether you’re a poetry pro or just getting started, your enthusiasm is what counts. Bring along your poems for feedback, or just ones you want to read, share and discuss—I’ll be reading some of my stuff too – can’t wait to hear what you think!
Every week we take turns bringing in a published poem.
This weeks poem is: Zuihitsu by Jenny Xie
And we limit rsvps so everyone gets fair time on their poem/s.
Super excited to meet you all. Let’s make an amazing poetry afternoon!
Catch you on Saturday,
Diego Mariscal
