11.11 — Same Minds, Different Continents
The Poem Stellium Anthology

Poem Stellium Ltd presents an international anthology.

A continuation of our 11.11 anthology series — expanding beyond place, beyond borders, beyond proximity.

This project is dedicated to beginnings.
Not just where you started, but the moment something in you began.

The line.
The feeling.
The realisation.
The quiet knowing that you were a poet.

Theme: Beginnings — across distance, across self, across the world

We invite poets from across the globe to reflect on their first encounter with language as power.

It may have been a childhood memory.
A sentence written in passing.
A moment of solitude.
A feeling you didn’t yet have the words for — until you did.

This anthology is a meeting point.
Of voices that may never share a room, but share the same beginning.
