Sponsored by Workhorse, Lexington Poetry Month is an easy to use platform for poets to publish and share their work in an attractive way. The community is supportive and diverse, commenting and encouraging one another throughout June. Money we raise goes to maintaining the cost of the website and publishing the yearly anthology. Our goals are to provide every poet (~150) a copy of the anthology, lower printing costs, and expand opportunities offered during Lexington Poetry Month, such as featured readings and poetry workshops.

Are we meant to know everything
Pile the world’s problems
In the backpack we strap on our shoulders?
Fill our wells with fresh grief
With every morning’s sunrise?

Nice! I love when a poet asks questions. It is a very powerful tool.

Thought-provoking. The news is so often crushing enough that no one can bear it all. Sometimes the only sane response is to stick your head in the sand for a while.
