Episode 16: The Poetry Cheat Sheet - Uncommon Grounds by the Espresso Poetry Collective

In this unconventional (for me) episode, I chat with five o the six poets behind the Espresso Poetry Collective. Over the course of our conversation, these wonderful women school me on what it means to be a poet, how to read poetry, and where we can see poetry in our everyday lives. Where poetry once once relegated to a small section at the back of the bookstore, the art form has exploded into mainstream over the last few years (Rupi Kaur, anyone?).

The poets of the collective started as a course and finished as a close group whose friendship goes beyond the bindings of their book.
