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.
This poem achieves a very weighty punch with twenty words, six of which are anaphora which add a compelling poetic touch. This is the sparse language of resistance that is far better than five page poems I have struggled to read.
So much lovely in such little space. Nice.
I also meant to say so much said in such little space.
I deeply appreciate your notice of the sparseness of language, yet hopefully, not meaning in my work.
Thank you for such generous feedback.

Kate, again you create a poem of so few words, but such power of feeling and meaning.
So much is such a small poem. How can people not understand.
