Sit down to write poetry for twenty minutes, one session at a time. Let the words emerge and the poems form themselves without second-guessing or review. Enjoy the process of writing. No subject is too trivial. Everyday concerns and details matter and are worth recording. Edit, revise, but not too much, and do it later, another day. Let the poems assert themselves and don't allow them to be squashed by doubts or rethinking. That's what I did. And here are the results. Claudia McGill is a poet and artist living in Wyncote, Pennsylvania.
