April is National Poetry Month. KFSK airs poems read out by community members each day this month at three times: after morning edition (8:07AM) , after midday magazine (12:30PM), and before ebb tide (6:30PM).
Recordings of poems this year can be found on this page. If you are interested in reading a poem, stop by the station weekdays 8a-4p or give us a call at 907-531-8049.
