Abstract
Frogmouth is a collection of poems that seeks to explore layered language and thought in conversation with layered language and thought, the composition and process of the collection itself, and the natural elements of poetry. Both the title and main concepts for this project are loosely inspired by the phrase “frog in my throat,” as well as the notion of thoughts entering and leaving one’s mind without guidance or warning. In other words, through intentional finagling of syntax and structure, the encompassing idea behind the collection is the poem’s journey through the process of writing the collection itself; how exactly I choose to begin and end a poem, the steps that guide me through revision, how I deal with droughts of inspiration, and how I question the occurrence of inspiration.
