your monthly dose of tactile literary art…

delivered to your doorstep

in the age of instant downloads, algorithms, 7 second reels, and the invisible ethers of the internet - there is a deep ache in us for more… for things that linger, things we can touch, and feel, and savor. to come into contact with us, reach into our body, wrap themselves around our heart, and make a home there.

this is a respite from the incessant digital hum of our lives

every month is a ritual to enter into a slower rhythm of living, a way to see the world beyond our tired eyes, to feel the pulse of the universe move through us by way of the lost art of snail mail. words spun into stanzas, tangible tokens enveloped by my hands to travel the vast distance between me and you, touched by others on the journey between us. time spent in anticipation for my next words to arrive in your hands. to see. to hold. to delight in. 

each month:

  • a printed poem - a piece of literary art to see, hold in your hands, and display as you wish

  • a letter - a brief reflection on its inspiration, a quiet companion to guide your reading

  • a prompt - an invitation to live alongside for the month or write into

each parcel is a subtle revolutionary act against a culture of hurriedness. let your mailbox become a portal to worlds undiscovered.

what is waiting to unfold?
