Lexington might not seem like the time or place to build a literary movement, but inside Al's Bar, home to the monthly Holler Poets Series, that's exactly what is happening. And in late July, the crowd at the semi-monthly spoken-word event was at maximum capacity to hear the headliner: Maurice Manning.
Manning, a finalist for the 2011 Pulitzer Prize in poetry, is one of the few poets who performs for the crowd as well as he writes for the page.
