social commentary
There's a rich history of poetry serving as social commentary, intended to inspire calls to action.
Workshop
You write about a hungover unicorn vomiting on the side of the road. People laugh. The workshops continue. You write more. Write about the complexities between duty and autonomy. Write about the Chosen One. Write about religion. Write about the constructs of virtue and purity. Write about the grunginess of New York City (because all urban fantasies are in New York City). Write about guns. Write about family. Write about alcoholism. Write about the border, both the real one and the fictional one. Write about being Mexican and not Mexican enough. And about Kendra, the nonbinary unicorn.
