Inside Voice

The Soft Mic

Inside Voice is a soft mic poetry experience that invites you to show up without performance. No stage, no clapping, no persona; just real words, real emotions, and space to be witnessed. Each poet responds to a shared prompt, creating an intimate thread of honesty across the room.

The audience responds with their own pen on reflection cards for all the poems they hear. Responses may be shared anonymously or kept private, but the act of witnessing is always collective.

Every guest leaves with a gift bag, a personal prompt card, and something intangible but lasting: the feeling of being heard without having to perform. Inside Voice is about poetry as presence.
