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.
“Let sky be below/your eyes”! Wow! This poem powers and keeps going of its own energy. Interesting that the title wants stillness, but the poem is anything but still.
Seems “still” to me. “Try, slow, let, don’t” are softly powered words. Followed your instructions and beyond fingertips – all of it – sky, air, earth… Great poem.
I really enjoyed this, instructions for living.
The use of the verb at the start really gives these lines momentum

Same line sung to me!

Love the soft nudge of this poem, especially the second stanza!
