Commoners’ WEC
Anonymous
Each life converges to some centre
Expressed or still;
Exists in every human nature
A goal,
Admitted scarcely to itself, it may be,
Too fair
For credibility's temerity
To dare.
Adored with caution, as a brittle heaven,
To reach
Were hopeless as the rainbow's raiment
To touch,
Yet persevered toward, surer for the distance;
How high
Unto the saints' slow diligence
The sky!

Talk to Text
Talk to text feature lets poets speak to text. This helps poets flow without the action of typing or pencil on paper.
Type it Out

Audio
Personalize your poetry by including your auditory reading to share. This feature allows the author to heighten the audiences understanding of the poems.
Avatar
Be seen, be heard, be acknowledged without the burden of societal norms. WEC lets authors, of all identities, chose pen names, avatars and voice modulators prioritizing the identity of expression over the born identity.

"The WEC events are so much. I do not have much money or time to participate in physical events. Except WEC provides me with the opportunity to engage with new authors and follow my current favorites without skipping out on real responsibilities."
