Trusted teacher: In the Poetry workshop you will learn the basics of writing poetry. The form, the content and the theme are widely discussed. But we also discuss the history of literature, we pay attention to reading, and we analyze poems. After this workshop you will be able to write poems in a convincing way. For my poetry, below is a review by Hans Franse in Meander. EXTENDED The sun so exuberant and the people the nakedness of the trees and the thaw the coming of spring and the prey of a seagull in the shining river boats in the harbor and a wind keyboard under a deck of steel-grey clouds the people delighted and the trees on melodious streets and the quay the glamorous sparkle of the glass in blue storefronts God's grace the people one on their exuberant terrace Somehow this poem reminds me of Marsman in music and rhythm 'and in the floodplains / the horses gallop / with billowing tails / over billowing grass'. Every now and then I seem to recognize JC Bloem's gloomy outlook on life, but those are compliments. In summary, I think this collection is very readable. They are well-constructed and musically formed poems that sometimes conceal a strong social feeling through a mild irony. It seems to me that the poet suffers from this world, that he seeks the "entrance of heaven." Perhaps the poet also suffers as a Brabander in Amsterdam: no greater contrast than a warm Brabant village pub and the Hoppe café on Spuistraat. A beautiful book, beautifully arranged. After an initial hesitation about a melancholy that I mistakenly regarded as negativity, which I recognized too late, I read it with great pleasure and sometimes emotion.
