How do you assess such a personal art as poetry? Basing his discussion on the best poems he has collected from his students over the years (included in this book), Collom provides a poet's view on what makes them exceptional. This cheerful and direct approach offers numerous exercises and specific examples of what works, throughout the text, with a summary of his philosophy and methodology at the end.
