What people are saying.

  • Kennedy’s poems are full of youthful exuberance. In “let’s go,” we join them at a concert, alive with “brassy timbre punches,” and we too are “helpless to the sheer joy of the trumpet.” They have an ear for sound, and the ability to paint memorable images.

  • Kennedy was wonderful to work with, and very attentive and forthcoming during the entire publishing process. The work submitted was wonderful quality and the vast differences in tone, formatting, and presentation perfectly showcased their writing ability.

  • We enjoyed reading Kennedy's poetry, which was selected for publication in our spring/summer issue. They were a pleasure to work with in preparing and approving final edits—punctual, responsive, and receptive. We look forward to seeing more work from Kennedy in the future.

  • Kennedy embodies the heart of everything we believe in at The Poetry Society of New York—creative play, vibrant collaboration, and undeniable fun. As a workshop leader, they brought a spirit of experimentation and wonder to their teaching, inspiring participants to tap into their wildest creative potential. And as a volunteer for the First Annual Poetry Holiday Market, their generosity and dedication helped transform our event into a magical winter wonderland.
