Welcome to Episode 10, in which we’ll invite you to “talk back to” Robert Bly’s poem, “People Like Us.”
As we discussed in Episode 3, talking back to a poem involves responding to a word, phrase, image, metaphor, sound, line or the poem as a whole, and beginning your own poem in response. Select anything that resonates with you and begin to write. Your poem need not be anything like the poem to which you’re responding.
Enjoy!
