Daily Outtakes: New Rhythms, New Rhymes

In this week’s Inweekly, we put a spotlight on local poets. The local poetry scene has given rise to several heavyweights—legends and role models in the poetry community, many of whom have graced the pages of Inweekly in the past—Charles McCaskill, LaChelle McCormick Johns, Quincy Hull, Jamey Jones, Patriot X and Northwest Florida’s Poet Laureate Asia Samson just to name a few.

For April’s National Poetry Month, we spoke with a few emerging and seasoned poets making their mark on the local landscape.
