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.

Bio for 2024

Anna Johnson Kline is a poet, musician, and songwriter who makes her home in Mt. Sterling. She grew up in small town Mississippi between the Chickasaw Bluffs of Memphis and the furrowed rows of Delta farmland. She was raised on a steady diet of hymns, three-part harmonies, and Memphis soul. Her writing is directly influenced by the redemptive strains of gospel, the drawling tremolo of rhythm and blues, and the raw twang of the mountain landscape. She is currently immersed in the Poetry Gauntlet at the Carnegie Center and is working on a collaborative songwriting project called "Thinking Like a Mountain."

Reason for signing up:

Poetry Gauntlet—and I am interested in connecting with more Lex-area writers.
