Sentence Poetry


When we are children, our stories come from a time of completely different vistas and viewpoints.  The sentence poems in this journal were written from the perspective and with the language of children—students taking us back to the hard, embarrassing stories of youth.  They are called “sentence poems” because the idea is to tell the story as a child does—all in one breath!  (Cover art by Tia Reilly)
