This is a space for the poems you don’t polish.
The ones you write at 2am.
The ones that scare you a little to share.
You don’t need to be “good” here.
You don’t need a degree, a following, or perfect grammar.
You just need honesty.
What we do here:
- Write raw, real poetry
- Share drafts, fragments, unfinished lines
- Give kind, direct feedback
- Show up for each other without performing
What this is not:
- A competition
- A place for ego or clout
- A workshop that tears your work apart
You can post:
- 4 lines or 40
- Untitled pieces
- “This is a draft” poems
- Work that doesn’t know what it is yet
Start whenever you’re ready.
Introduce yourself, or don’t.
Post a poem, or sit quietly until you feel safe.
This community grows through presence, not pressure.
We’re glad you’re here.
Let your words be messy.
Let them be sweet.
Let them sting.
🕯️🍯
