There are some seriously talented poets on Substack. So many, in fact, that Stefan Pasek and I have decided to feature their work in a new monthly series!

That’s right, this recording of our stream from June 18th is the first in a new monthly series where we read and discuss your poems LIVE! We’ll also take submissions for these streams ahead of time, so keep an eye on both of our subscriber chats if you want to have your work read in a future stream.

In the meantime, please find links to all the poems (barring one that wasn’t published at the time of recording) from this month’s stream below in the order they were read:
