One-on-one Listening Session

There’s no need to prepare, but you’re welcome to consider what you might like your poem to be about in advance of your session. It could be something you care about, something that happened, or something that’s been on your mind.

Your Listener Poet will write your poem, based on the conversation, and email it to you within a few days. The poem will be anonymized and is yours to keep.

From my standpoint as a physician, it really turned the tables to have someone really listen to me. It’s usually my job to listen to my patients.

I walked out feeling a small amount of joy I hadn’t felt before in my heart.
— Dr. R.
