Demand Poetry
“My wife loved the poem.
Actually, my daughter and I enjoyed it so much that we read it through many times
before I gift wrapped it.
I love the fact that you choose to use a typewriter;
it adds character to the poetry.
Thank you again for the wonderful poetry.”
–Wayne D.

I just wanted to let you know that I received your gorgeous demand poem written for my daughter, Jenna, today, and it brought tears to my eyes to read your incredible work! I am utterly amazed at how you are able to garner such an intimate understanding about someone through a brief interview, and then cultivate such a beautiful and poignant ode from there. It’s such a talent you have and I’m so glad it was made available to me. I can’t wait to present this unique, meaningful gift to my daughter.
I will definitely tell others about your wonderful service.

It’s easy to describe how Demand Poetry works. Scroll down in a second and you can read the step-by-step process.
But before you do that, I want to tell you what Demand Poetry does for you.
Demand Poetry isn’t a tweet or a status update.
It isn’t a chat or text or a call.
It is real time spent together, one-one-one, unravelling a part of your beautiful story.
It is a brief and potent and personal.
Demand Poetry is real.

How it Works:
- You tell me what you want: a customized poem for yourself? For your daughter? For a friend on their birthday or wedding? Whatever the occasion, I can write for you.
- I ask some questions, but not too many.
- I gather some details, but not too many.
- I write the poem. Every poem is composed on my Olivetti Lettera, greased up and reconditioned by Mr. Typewriter, himself.
- I create a “final” version, on beautiful paper.
- I ship the poem to you either unfolded, in a sturdy C4 sized envelope, or in a lovely frame, ready to hang.
I offer American and International sizes and shipping! Just ask!
You + Me +
Typewriter = POETRY
