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.

Sleep holds promises that waking life cannot keep
I find myself searching for answers as I count invisible sheep

whose grazing pastures are lush and green

One thousand and one…
One thousand and three…
I lose count and let dreams become me
