Every price you pay to fix the situation is worth not going the wrong way, and starting to go the right way.

There’s a theory that a poet’s work tends toward one of four major axes—poetry of the body, poetry of the mind, poetry of the heart, or poetry of the soul. Where would you place your work, if at all?

We asked Lexi Pelle: What’s the best piece of writing advice you’ve ever received? Alternatively: what would you tell other poets about writing the unsayable? 💙

Lexi Pelle, our Poet of the Week 💙

01.03.2026 18:45 👍 5 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0

poetry prompt of the week: Albert Camus once said, "The human heart has a tiresome tendency to label fate only what crushes it."

write about how this may/not resonate with you or envision how it may for someone else, even a character. ask the heart why & try to pick up what it says the quietest.
