About The Scansion Cauldron

The Scansion Cauldron offers the unique opportunity to go deep into the scansion of a great poem with Annie each month. And as long as you are subscribed to the cauldron, you will have access to a private video library of all previous scansions.

Here’s How it Works

Early each month, subscribers to this space receive a poem whose scansion I find important and compelling. Then you will have a hiatus in which to read the poem silently or aloud, meditate on it, and, if you like, create your own scansions of the poem. As a Scansion Cauldron subscriber, you will also have access to the private chat area where you are invited to post your scansion for discussion and to comment on scansions posted by others.

In the middle of the month, you will receive an invitation to Annie’s video livestream where she will scan the poem and offer Deep Scansion commentary—how scansion interacts with other levels of the poem— on our private Scansion Cauldron video playlist. If you can’t attend, you will have access to view the livestream later, along with access to Annie’s entire private library of previous Scansion Cauldron videos.

The space also includes access to a number of resources discussing and guiding the art of scansion, which you can use and consult at any time.

In my opinion, Deep Scansion is the most powerful overlooked secret to reading, writing, loving, absorbing, and being transformed by the magic of poetry . I never get bored with the mysterious and ever-surprising experience of scanning a great poem. I invite you to share the spellbinding craft and art of Deep Scansion with me each month in Scnasion Cauldron.

Yours in love, magic, and poetry,

Annie
