Paywall

Might as well just charge for the app if every single article and poem is behind a paywall.

Literally save me from brain rot

Every time I am tempted to doom scroll instead I read a poem. I feel sooooo much better for it.

Freedom is in artists speaking truth

We must support our artists and poets are the pinnacle of artists.

Time

I find when I am down or up, being able to quickly open the app and flip to a poem my heart is refreshed - then back to the fray that marks each day

Wonderful magazine

I live in the UK so a print subscription doesn’t really work for me. The digital subscription through this app is well worth the cost - it’s introduced me to some wonderful poets I haven’t met before, and thoughtful essays on the art of poetry.
