Notes

  • Author's note: A few years ago I noticed a piece in a British newspaper (The Guardian, U[nited] K[ingdom], Wednesday 21 December 2005); a poetry-writing competition based on a workshop run by prize-winning poet Helen Farish. First, below, the note in the Guardian followed by Helen Farish's handy workshop hints, then the poem I could not help but write and send in. Alas, for all the metrical correctness of my Sapphics, I failed to win a prize. (J.T.)
