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.
Like the sunrise After a storm The flip of a switch As night falls You are the golden strand In my former scars Kintsugi The precious reparation Of broken things.
The poem contrasts sharp consonants with open vowel sounds, as if healing the broken parts.
The cadence of the poem flows well. Overall, a damn good poem.
Thank you.
Love the whole thing, but those final two lines are gorgeous!
Kintsugi is such a wonderful subject Jane – to break, and continue. Often use it myself, but this, nothing like this. Loved it.
You all are very encouraging – I appreciate it <3
