'I am poetry.' T-Shirt, original wearable poem

Original wearable poetry by Danique Bailey features a poem on a tee.

This lightweight jersey shirt wears like a quiet conversation — breathable Airlume cotton that drapes without cling. The front reads “I am poetry.” in a clean serif with a short stanza beneath, inviting slower reading and small discoveries. Subtle back text near the neckline adds a gentle signature without stealing the moment. Clean white canvas, neat crew neckline, and side seams keep the silhouette tidy while shoulder tape and a ribbed collar help it hold shape wash after wash. It’s for people who prefer words over slogans and comfort over fuss — something to reach for on days spent reading, wandering, or meeting a friend for coffee.

Slip it on with loose jeans for slow-afternoon walks, layer under a cardigan for a reading group night, or fold into a travel bag for weekend retreats. The breathable, lightweight fabric and retail cut make it easy to style and comfortable all day. Sourced and manufactured with attention to fair labor practices; tear-away label keeps the back of the neck irritation-free.
