we have our first reading as featured poets since leaving america 64 days ago...
sunday october 15th, 2006, we’ll each recite 15 minutes at Massolit Books,
then turn it over to the open mic. we’ll both be reading from memory.
last month, doing 3 poems as part of Urban-Jellen Test’s opening Dada Cabaret acts
was the 1st time i’d ever gotten up before an audience and recited from memory
without a piece of paper in my hand for protection. good feeling. lets you watch for feedback.
