Gregory Warren Wilson
In the Nick of Time” - Gregory’s theme for the workshop: “Time is one of the most telling subjects a poet ever addresses – reflecting on their childhood, celebrating the moment, or in intimations of their own mortality. But time is embedded in poetry itself; a poem takes time to write, and its form determines how long it will take us to read it – haiku or epic.”
