Custom Poems by Request

Custom poems of the highest quality are available by using the form below. Payment for a custom poem (accepted via Venmo, Cashapp, Paypal) is sliding scale on a “pay what you think the poem is worth” basis. It’s true: I’d prefer to meet you in a chance street encounter where I’m all set up and ready to make you a poem; to defer the cost of time spent both in the setting up of my equipment and in mailing of the final product; there is a $20 minimum for poetry commissioned online. 

“What Would You Like a Poem About?”

This is the question I ask anyone who requests a poem from me on the street and there’s no wrong way to answer it. Feel free to leave as little or as much detail as you’d like in the questions below, though the more information you give, the easier it is to make a poem that is truly yours. You can expect a first draft within a week, and a physical copy in the mail on its way to you a few days after a final arrangement is agreed upon.
