Abstract
Two university instructors illustrate the benefits of poetry in L2 first-year-writing classrooms. Poetries from within and outside Euro-American traditions invite multiple approaches for student-to-text engagement and encourage genre subversions; expressions of class, achievement, and personal challenge; structural play; and building from writers' agencies and specific skill sets for language acquisition.
