Juan Felipe Herrera, the first Mexican-American Poet Laureate in the
USA, is sharing secrets: how to turn your wonder at the world around you
into weird, wild, incandescent poetry.
Can you walk and talk at the same time? How about Jabber Walk? Can you
write and draw and walk and journal all at the same time? If not, you're
in luck: exuberant, blue-cheesy cilantro man Juan Felipe Herrera, Poet
Laureate of the United States, is here to teach you everything he knows
about being a real-life, bonified, jabberwalking poet! Jabberwalkers
write and speak for themselves and others no matter where their feet may
take them -- to jabberwalk is to be a poet on the move. And there's no
stopping once you're a Jabberwalker, writing fast, fast, fast,
scribble-poem-burbles-on-the-run. Scribble what you see! Scribble what
you hear! It's all out there -- vámonos!
