Research Project
I found the work of Billy Collins to be very interesting. He is able to communicate ideas and feelings beautifully in his videos. He has a way of using video that adds an entire new dimension to his work, not just simply recreating the words that are being spoken. I hope to learn about Collins' process and way of thinking. From here on out I need to dive into all of the works by Billy Collins I can get a hold of. I need to research the history of his professional life and the projects he's working on, or hopes to accomplish in the future. I'm going to use the next two weeks for research, and then the week after for writing my first draft.

Well, but Billy Collins isn't really considered to be an experimental poet. Persuade me why researching Collins's work will help you with your own compositions, for I am not adverse to you researching Collins's work... I just need to be persuaded that doing this will support you in your own experimenting.
