You don't have to be well-read in poetry or literature or spend lots of time reading poetry. Just log in for an hour on Zoom and join us as we read and discuss the poetry of famous poets. You will most likely enjoy the experience and wish you showed up sooner.
For this session we will be reading and discussing Stanzas 9-15 of Walt Whitman's poem Song of the Open Road.
The poem covers themes such as love, human contact, democracy, equality, and openness to everything. We will discuss the last seven stanzas and also how this reflects the themes that Whitman discusses in his poetry in general.
