The Task

Doctor! Doctor! Give me the news...

After completing your internship as a poetry practitioner you will be expected to perform a series of examinations that will eventually result in your Doctor of Poetry certification.

The first examination:

Publish a collection of your poems in a book that you will illustrate using the Clarisworks Drawing Pad.

The second examination:

Perform a follow-up visit to redefine your feelings about poetry by answering the questions on the "Poetic License" survey.

The final examination:

Perform a "surgery" by completing a self-discovery analysis in your journal that examines what poetry has taught you about yourself, others, and the world.
