Event: Poetry Night

Click HERE to listen

You’re invited~

Last December I was on the Poetry Night calendar as a featured poet, but out-of-town family stuff spirited me away at the last moment. Poetry Night, in all it’s grace, has allowed me a “make-up” event.

Hope to see you all there!

Thank you Poetry Night staff,

SPL
