Some poetry writing exercises involving dialog

Write a poem that consists mostly of an overheard phone conversation somewhere in public… since it’s a one sided conversation, you fill in the other side of the conversation in your head, creating an odd dialog.

Write a sonnet entirely in dialog that is a conversation between three distinct voices.

Write a sequence of haikus, every other being a statement, and an action/image that reinforces that statement, perhaps famous quotes.
