Help us keep on giving.

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.

Anger Numbers

I asked for a sign
so long ago I don’t remember when
or why

11:11 on glowing cellular screens
222 on the car number plate in front of me as I drove home
444, 1515, 123 and 321

Stalking me until I listen

OH! that one letter change is so deviously genius.

Love the fresh, though ominous, perspective!

Lol, this also cracks me up for all the good reasons.

  Be careful what you wished for or you’ll spend months trying to figure out what you’re supposed to be looking at!

They talk to me as well, but I don’t understand the language!
11:11 and 1:11 are always with me.

  222 has been with me for so long. Wish I had a translator!
