Conceived as an intimate space for unconventional devotees of the written word. Writers. Poets. Vivid creators of the jagged and keen, unpolished and visceral. A space to appreciate each other’s company, exchange honest feedback, and leverage it to improve. We don’t care about the rhyme scheme of your literary gut punch. We do care about it landing the way you want it to.

Remind me once more
What a man is for
So I know what to forget
Build with me a bonfire
The bones are here but brittle
We are each just a set of impressions
Made and had
Paper soldiers
Biding time on the back page
Burn not the effigy
When the blood you spilled
Was for the man in me
The little lives you traded
For the one we couldn’t make
Paint a picture of a lonely life
I can't make due with holy
Having trafficked in sin
I'll not settle for silence
When I've earned an amen
