Pop-Up Typewriter Poet
Pop-Up Poetry (Written for You, On the Spot)
Live, personalized poems, written on a typewriter, just for you.
I sit with your guests, listen for a moment,
and write them a poem they get to keep.

PERFECT FOR
- Weddings (cocktail hour + receptions)
- Private gatherings + celebrations
- Coffee shops + pop-ups
- Church events + retreats
- Corporate experiences
If your event values presence, meaning, and connection, then this fits.

HOW IT WORKS
Guests come up one at a time. We talk for a minute or two—
about something simple, or something real.
Then I write.
Each poem is typed live on a typewriter and handed to them on the spot.
Because each poem is written live and personalized, I typically create around 10–12 poems per hour.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
WHAT DOES PRICING LOOK LIKE?
Because every event is a little different, packages are tailored to your specific gathering. If you’d like a quote, send an email with:
- your event date
- location
- estimated guest count
- type of event
and I’ll follow up with availability and pricing.

WHAT KIND OF POEMS CAN YOU EXPECT?
I write free-verse poems shaped by a brief conversation and the moment we’re in. They’re usually a few lines to a few stanzas, and often end up putting words to something people didn’t quite know how to say. Each poem takes the space it needs—no more, no less.

MORE ABOUT ME:
Hi, I’m Ka‘eo.
I’m a published poet and the author of Everything Is a Poem and Turbulence & Tenderness, with work that has resonated with readers both online and in print. One of my books has received recognition through a literary award, and my writing has grown through years of paying attention to people, to moments, and to the quiet things we don’t always have words for.
This live poetry experience is simply an extension of that...
creating something personal, in real time, for the people in front of me.
If this feels like something your event needs,
I’d love to be there.
