This is my second year with LEXPOMO, and I loved the community experience and sharing of words that help to heal the world.

After the past four years, it’s tradition.

To challenge myself to write a poem everyday and to become a better poet in the process.

It feels necessary.

I was drunk when I signed up last year and spent the month writing dumb but fun haikus. This year, I might want to experiment and sprinkle in some new stuff.

These poems can’t live in my notes app forever ¯_(ツ)_/¯

To make sure I work diligently, at least for a month.

My friend has been participating in Lexington Poetry Month for years, and I’ve always found it inspiring. I’ve been curious about it for a while, but this is the first year I finally decided to take the leap. As a musician and lyricist, I’ve always been drawn to the power of words, and this felt like the perfect challenge to stretch that part of my creativity in a new way.
