Description

In this Challenge, students are presented with three modern poems that have been published in a major literary magazine within the last few years. Each poem offers up a visceral vision that, like many quality poems, can be interpreted and enjoyed both on a universal and personal level.

Each team must choose one poem, study it, debate it, and find its lyricism, meaning and ambition. Then, create a visual video interpretation of their select poem to accompany a recitation of the poem. Music may be used to underscore the work.
