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
