Poetry is Chocolate

Evolving from the foundations laid in their debut anthology, the Thursday Night Poets return with "Poetry is Chocolate", an evocative blend of seasoned writers and new voices. Each poem is a rich tapestry, intricately woven with emotions, memories, and experiences. Taking its name from a piece penned by one of its original members, the collection resonates with the joy, depth, and transformative power of poetry. The title poem equates the act of writing poetry to the deep satisfaction of savoring chocolate, a sweet metaphor for the comforting and healing power of words. Dive into a world where camaraderie is the ink, and passion is the parchment.

I Don’t Think I Did This Right

This anthology offers a raw and earnest peek into their worlds, drawing readers into the intimate journey of self-discovery and shared resilience. Born out of the initial forays of the Thursday Night Poets into the world of expression, this collection echoes the trepidations, hopes, and unwavering spirit of those willing to bare their souls. It serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit of people who, despite challenges, find their voice and inspire others to do the same.
