From the first time that I attended BPC POETRYFEST in Atlanta in 2016, I wanted to be find a way to work with Mark Goggins and his amazing team to host future events that brought the poetry community together. When the last PoetryFest had to be indefinitely postponed due to COVID-19 safety concerns, I began a quest to help create an online festival that would bring together the poetry community while at the same time, expanding our online presence. What started as an online "cypher" (Queendom Cypher) began to grow into something "bigger than me". I named my company after the vision of bringing the poets together and seeing us thrive.
All of the 5 senses can be used in some way, to be paid. Being paid to see, hear, taste, touch, smell are all just the many ways we have learned to capitalize on what we do naturally.
I am working hard to bring a hybrid event that brings resources and opportunity as well as networking and fellowship. And while we're at it, try to make a little money for the participants.
I will continue to update with more on what we're doing and where we all fit in.
I am a book full of pages
I thought no one wanted to read
Or who’s cover rendered me
Unreadable
Illegible
Or in a foreign language
I didn’t understand…
I am not a book
I am an album.
I can’t be read
I can be seen
I can be heard
And for some
I can be felt very deeply...
