Episode #125 Open Mic of the Air #4

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

This is the fourth episode of the Open Mic of the Air featuring poets from across the United States - Oregon, Colorado, Illinois, and more - as well as work from Mexico. 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 [email protected].
