:: ::

The Open Mic of the Air is a project from Poetry Spoken Here. Since most in-person poetry events are temporarily suspended due to coronavirus, this is a way for poets from around the world to connect and have a creative outlet.

We are also eager to receive and share poems inspired by the recent country-wide protests against police brutality and in support of the value of black lives.

This is the fifth episode of the Open Mic of the Air featuring poets from across the United States -New York, Wisconsin, Oregon and more - as well as work from England. Give a listen and submit your work for the next episode!

Send a recording - 5 mins or shorter - of yourself reading one of your poems, including your name and location, to openmicoftheair@gmail.com.
