Thanks for helping!

In Three Poems features a different guest poet each week. We read three poems, two by the guest, and one by a poet of the guest's choice. The readings are wrapped in a discussion about how the poems work and how they work with each other, and how art influences art.

Your support will help with expenses like monthly hosting fees, books by our guests, equipment, and the occasional permissions fees. We would love to be able to give an honorarium to guest poets in the future. So, thank you for helping us on our way!

In Three Poems Hosted by David J. Bauman Hello! You're receiving this email because you follow me at DavidJBauman.com, formerly The Dad Poet on WordPress. I still can't believe I've blogged there since 2008! Because that blog has primarily been about poetry (with some fatherhood and birding thrown in), including my old YouTube and SoundCloud readings, I'm hoping that you'll want to follow this newsletter about my latest project, the In Three Poems podcast!
