FEATURED POET ANNOUNCEMENT 📣

Y’all know we look forward to any chance to celebrate our local poets during National Poetry Month and this year is no different. Without further ado, we’re glad to announce Joey Gorombey as the second featured poet for our evening at OneMic Collective presents: Contrast.

Joey Gorombey has his roots in confessional and post-confessional poetry and owns a software company in Columbia, Missouri.

Joey has always written to “troubleshoot” the things that software can’t—to make sense of the messy, non-linear nature in which we live our lives and to harvest our experiences. Still young and nascent in his writing career, his favorite works include Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf and The Two Kinds of Decay by Sarah Manguso. Although he aims for some combination of closure and perspective, writing has just as often led him to fold his hand in search of either.

Joey holds a summa cum laude degree in English, with a specialty in creative writing. He interned at the University of Missouri for its poetry magazine and podcast and was a memoir finalist in CNF Review. He continues to seek active involvement in Columbia’s literary community and is an amateur stand-up comedian.

We can’t wait to welcome him to the stage for his FIRST OneMic appearance. taken in Columbia, Missouri by @onemiccomo

Here’s our FEATURED POET for April’s OneMic, OneMic Collective presents: Contrast. We are excited to welcome none other than one of the FOUNDERS of this here humble collective, T’Keyah Thomas!

T’Keyah Thomas is a spoken word poet and jewelry designer based in Columbia, MO. She is a lover of all things art, Black History and Afrofuturism.

Ancestral reverence sits at the center of much of T’Keyah’s work. She draws inspiration from the history and folklore found throughout the Black diaspora, often adopting the West African philosophy of Sankofa, which means to “go back and get it”. In other words, learn from the past to understand the present and better prepare for the future.

Over the years, TK has been a witness to and has assisted in the creation and operations of several local arts programs and cultural events in Columbia, including the OneMic Poetry Collective, Lisamona LIVE, Unbound Book Festival, Louder than a Bomb (Mid-MO chapter) and Soul Sessions COMO. As a host and audio producer for KBIA (91.3FM), you’re likely to catch TK on-air during the day with a Dilla beat behind her, or moderating a panel on art and local history.

We’re so excited to welcome her to the stage and we’ll see YOU on April 29th. Doors at 6, show at 7! taken in Columbia, Missouri by @onemiccomo

Join us for a powerful evening of music and poetry featuring Marjai and GW Norman III.
Marjai, a Kansas City–born rapper, blends her slam poetry roots with unapologetic lyricism. GW Norman III brings sharp social commentary, dark humor, and deeply introspective work that explores vulnerability, resistance, alienation, and redemption.

Doors at 6 PM Show at 7 PM $5 suggested donation

Just wanna give a huge thank you to One Mic & Hitt Records for the opportunity to perform last week! I had such an amazing time and what a freaking cool place to perform in! 🥁🎤

This community is so supportive and vibrant. I’m really grateful to be back in Columbia and to have a space where I can keep learning, growing, and pushing myself as a musician. Excited to write more originals and maybe have another show soon! #woopwoop taken in Hitt Records by @onemiccomo
