What Now?

A space created to talk about your work without talking about your work. My poem was subjected to workshop hell and I survived. What now though? I have not read my written responses but listened to different things everyone said in class. In totality all elements matched. Different people picked up on different things that were headed exactly where I wanted to go.

My basic questions are how many 'tool tips' are appropriate to give the reader? I'm left with these questions of how much information is too much and how much is too little. This is so difficult because I am a blogger of sorts and I talk about any ole thing that comes to mind. This space is comfortable for me. It is by no means foreign or a place where I am shy or hold back too much. I just don't want to bend in that poem. Every last dang element my class touched on but how connective do I want to make it? How A equals B equals C yeah you got it do I have to be? I know that there are possibly three or four 'spell it all out' lines that I could give that would completely tie everything in--clear visual, check!

I sound like a disgruntled workshopee but I am not. But I am however going to switch over to a freer space, one where I can breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, fill my lungs.
