Poetry is all the things ; funny, sexy, relatable, healing, revolutionary, but can also be deep, dark, and real and that’s okay.

It's not easy getting things off our chest. Especially things we’ve that we’ve suppressed and harbored for too long.

Just know that whenever you’re ready to release in peace, we’re here to hold you up as you navigate this challenge. Poetry is life and life is Poetry.

At 𝐖𝐞’𝐯𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐭 𝐒𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐨 𝐒𝐚𝐲 we encourage our attendees to not just perform for the sake of entertainment, but to also invoke awareness on the importance and power of using your voice to speak up and out in regards to their healing, self worth, and self advocacy in order to improve internal and interpersonal relationships that shape the quality of their lives and overall well-being.

It may be nerve racking speaking up for the first time by yourself or in front of a crowd but always remember that your ability to do so was once and still is worth fighting and dying for.

With that said..I’m excited to announce our Featured Poet for the evening!

Coming all the way from Bronx, New York we have .edik stopping by to illuminate the room with her music and poetry🎙️

PŌ’EDIK is a Spoken word Artist and Musician. Her journey with poetry started at 9 years old and started transitioning into spoken word later in high school, where she created a slam team.

Six years ago she started her journey with music creating songs that are heavily boom bap inspired. Poetry has always been a outlet for PŌ’EDIK to discuss her own personal strife and tell the story of other people in her community.

*snap it up* we can’t wait for an amazing night 🎉
