Poetry Oracle

Poetry Oracle 2020 is a collection of small poems printed individually on large cards that can be selected at random in response to seekers’ questions. The questions can be mundane or profound, personal or philosophical, vital or silly. A Poetry Oracle station will be created for the April 2020 Book/Poetry Fest Lit Marketplace. Decks are placed in a basket and people are invited to think of a question and pull a card with a poem as an answer. The poem is theirs to keep. Poetry Oracle 2019 participants were delightfully surprised by how helpful the poems could be for answering their questions. Five decks (200 poems) will be produced for sharing/giving away and fifteen decks for sale. An interactive event will also be produced for Book/Poetry Fest featuring the Poetry Oracle poets and using questions from the audience to explore the angst and ecstasy of the wild times in which we live.
