Abstract
Mark Kuhar describes how levy's example influenced his own personal Cleveland literary journey, from creating two levyfests and a live reading series; to starting up a small press for print editions; to taking advantage of digital opportunities to publish and promote poetry; to becoming a community activist; and what levy's own words – "in the days unborn you will find my brothers armed with words you haven't even dreamed of," – means for the future.
