Yes, so when do we launch our first geurilla readings?
I say we hit the mall.

THAT'S RIGHT!

Congrats everyone on a job EXTREMELY well done with the read-a-thon.

It's a f**kin coup we're commitin...

I am blessed to know and work with such talent, dedication, and get-up-and-give-it! Thanks for being so wicked...

one day i came across a very cool poem ...

... it was written for folk artist barry colpitts by joe blades ... he liked it so much, he painted it on the side of his house and surrounded it with folk art and joe turned it into a postcard ....

a love supreme (thanks to Coltrane)

1/        

it's

that weird off-beat again.
catching me

  just

     as i

       sink

         into

              a
              nice,
              steady,
              4/4.            

or...


the slow, foxy grumble
easing out past    the piano

to tweak

my
   unsuspecting ear.


2/

it is whispered (not sung) that

the logic of a
dull man's dance

is born of his decision to dance


   that

        he

     who

       has not felt

                 the dizzy whirl

              of


                                          release

  has not

              been

      whirled.      


3/   

but ooooooooo the

       sudden
    
    turns 

  of 

that love supreme
 

shuck off
the tippity-tap
the bing-bang-boom
the hand hand fingersthumb


somehow, both gone and returned
