WHO WE ARE

Read Poetry is a safe space to explore identity, diversity, and empowerment, providing a familiar but current look into the human experience. It is an online community where we celebrate poetry around the world and encourage readers to discover poetry that speaks to them.

With poets like Amanda Lovelace, Courtney Peppernell, Iain S. Thomas, and Rupi Kaur bringing their work to Instagram and other digital mediums, we saw a need to centralize the poetry community into a supportive space where they can share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences and engage in self-care.

We hope you find a soft place to land.
