Bless You: Tending the Sick at Home as an Act of Love During the Coronavirus

love is in groceries

and grimaced faces 
when milk is spilled
and hearts hit the floor
and tissues that find their way to 
waste baskets
the unwonderful
used band aids
and muddled schedules
muffled coughs
stuffed ears
the one hundred and twentieth
bless you
a little trite 
exhausted
inexhaustible
uttered in a day that’s true.

Learning to Say "We": Writing Identity

In this immersion, we will reflect and expand on our personal experiences of identity, using writing exercises and in-depth discussions to think about, challenge, discover, explore, and experiment with different ways to identify ourselves, to consider how those ways connect us to and separate us from others, and how they represent and misrepresent aspects of who we are.

Four sessions, starting June 15th
