American Poet
A poetry & art brand
We create poetry books, collectible poetry cards, postcards, art prints, and limited-edition metal prints. Our debut collection, San Francisco Is My Home, brings poetry and visual art together — a series of books, cards, and prints that celebrate San Francisco not just as a city, but as a muse, a destination, and a place of belonging.
The invitation
See the City Through the Eye of a Poet
Read the poem below. Then visit San Francisco and look again — slowly, the way a poet looks — until the bridge, the fog, and the seven hills become something more than scenery. Until, perhaps, you too will call her home.

American Poet
as all roads lead to Rome;
my own road leads me westward —
where gray fog meets the foam.
where the bay lies open wide,
radiant in her handsome hues,
captured and kissed by the tide.
as all roads lead to Rome,
to my Rome of California:
San Francisco is my home.
