I think of a poem as a flashlight, an instrument of discovery. I’m here to light the way for you, to show you what I’ve learned, and not just about rhyme and meter. I’ll also teach you about being open to influence, understanding who you are as a poet, and inventing a persona, that is, a distinctive voice that is yours alone. Join me in my first-ever MasterClass. https://www.masterclass.com/billycollins | Billy Collins

Dog Show Dogs and "Dog Show" Poems Poet Billy Collins joined us in the AKC Museum of the Dog Members Lounge at the AKC National Championships alongside Sunny, a top-ranked Portuguese Water Dog. Billy did a short reading of "A Dog on His Master” from his new book "Dog Show," which was enjoyed by all, in particular Sunny, who was so pleased he fell right off the couch!
