Prompt: Song or Literary Work

Published on June 26, 2020 by Editorial Staff

From Western Wind, an Introduction to Poetry edited by David Mason and John Frederick Nims.

Write a poem alluding to a song or literary work that only someone of your generation would know. Can you make your poem comprehensible to readers of other generations?
