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

I know that feeling well. Great poem!
Great poem
Fill out wells with fresh grief- Love it
Ignorance is bliss!
Great question. Nicely done.
