It has been a time of great stress, knowing she would not recover. Friends in the poetry community have rallied with love and wisdom to fortify me. When my mother departed her body on Saturday, Nicki Miller joined me at the hospital and stayed beside me throughout the long hard day. Larry Jaffe, Georgia Popoff and Ryfkah and others have given me strength and support. I will continue to get out the MAP and featured poetry supplement, but I won't be online for the next several days, and will probably not be able to catch up on e mail for a few weeks.
Most events are free, unless otherwise noted.
Some venues pass tip jar for featured poets. First time readers welcome. Tuesday, Nov. 28 - Sun Poets in San Antonio. 7 p.m. Sun Poets Society open mic, hosted by Rod C. Stryker. Monthly reading, anyone welcome.
