Men, it's time to juggle your mental chainsaws. Race brain cells in the dark without lights. Expose our strong, imaginative maleness to lightning in a storm. (Why leave this fun to Ben Franklin?) In this small group setting we'll rediscover the raw power of poetry. Not a class for the faint-of-heart, it explores poetry for men, written by men. Not gladiolas, but gunpowder. Not fairies and bird feathers but fishing and fighting. Not hand-holding poetry but the singular strength of fist bumps and arm wrestling. With hand-outs and email we will discover that "poetry" has been kidnapped ... and we men want it back. We promise an exciting time! 




Richard “Rick” Sapp grew up on a Florida island. Following military service, he completed a PhD in Cultural Anthropology (U.S. Air Force Academy, Catholic University and University of Florida). He was first published in a poetry anthology (about 1971) and has since worked for newspapers and magazines. As an editor and freelance writer, he has authored nearly fifty books for a variety of publishers and hundreds of fiction and nonfiction features in media as diverse as sailing, archery and governmental affairs. Rick and his wife make their home in Blairsville, Georgia.
