Farid Matuk reads "Glistering" from Moon Mirrored Indivisible (@uchicagopress.bsky.social, 2025).
If poetry is slow, thoughtful, inspired, and nuanced, then panic is sudden, unthinking, repetitive, and unidimensional. In this workshop, we’ll experiment with what the forms of panic and poetry do to each other, read examples, & generate our own experiments in the friction of these two forms (2/2)
