Crawl Poet #3 of 30 — Eric Odum @verbalinfluence
On April 25, 2026, during National Poetry Month and Independent Bookstore Day, 30 of Ohio’s poets drew 373 readers, writers, and book enthusiasts to eight independent bookstores across Cleveland for the Cleveland Poetry Festival by Literary Cleveland. This is a tiny excerpt from one of those mighty poets.
