Direct Mail Poetry

I worked in political communications for so long that it sucked the soul out of language, and it felt like everything became jargon. The Direct Mail Poetry Project is an attempt to distribute meaningful language about political issues and how they actually interact with our lives.

This mailer is disguised as a run-of-the-mill political mailer (poking fun of the tropes used in political advertising) and is distributed through the USPS during election seasons. Sign up for future mailings here.

Poetry by Freesia McKee and Dr. Matthew E. Henry
