I Am Poetry is a creative home for writers, poets, and storytellers who want to grow, learn, and express themselves through the power of words. Founded by Everkesia Taylor, this community was built to give creatives a space to develop their craft, connect with others, and explore poetry as both an art form and a lifestyle.
What began as live open mics in Tampa has grown into a global community where members access writing lessons, workshops, virtual open mics, creative challenges, and a supportive network of voices who believe in learning together.
Beyond the digital space, I Am Poetry continues to thrive through monthly in-person shows, quarterly festivals, and apparel designed to inspire creativity.
By joining, you become part of a movement that exists both online and in person—a space where artists can write, grow, and build community. Welcome to I Am Poetry.
