About
Established in 2023
A Poet Once Said (APOS) is a community focused on the “things” that get lost in translation. The heart of poetry is trying to convey these “things” because they clue us into ways of changing the norm.
There are many different ways to design a building or a city block. There are many different ways to say the same thing. APOS is concerned with ways that foster inner, community, and environmental prosperity.
APOS’s vision is for a future that learns lessons from history rather than shy away from it. Inner feelings within people and communities teach us valuable lessons, lessons that need addressing to chart a path forward free from chaos.
Efficiency doesn’t have to come at the cost of beauty. The “things” that show character, celebrate nature, and pave a path towards a harmonious future are the “things’ at the heart of APOS.
We invite you to wander, listen, and explore.
