Magnetic Poetry is one-man Scrabble and the prize is insight. (Robert Hass, Former Poet Laureate)

Taking poetry out of the academy and into the homes and neighborhoods of America, Magnetic Poetry has inspired a new nation of poets. Collected here is some of their best work-fresh, poignant, vivid, and lyrical poems from first-graders and grandmothers, housewives and ex-hippies, stockbrokers, teenagers, and punk rockers.

And because Magnetic Poetry can strike anyone, anytime, this book contains a poetry primer, with writing exercises from odes to alphabet poems, jigsaw poems to ghazals, plus the basics of rhyme, meter, and form. To complete the kit-over 100 word titles in a vinyl pouch and a magnet-friendly front cover.
