...for Florida right after the next meeting which is on May 10. I will try to blog before I go.
I have posted Art's wonderful poem about his father which I like even better after another reading. Thanks, Art.
Several people have expressed their frustration about not being able to post comments so I am adding an instruction element on the righthand side of the page. I love to read comments and want you all to do it, so pay attention!
For those of you who remember him, I have gotten a "Hey there" from Charlie Rossiter in Chicago. Charlie is a good friend and a member of the Three Guys from Albany, along with Dan Wilcox who you met at the brunch, and the late Tom Nattell. In fact, I think the last time I spoke to Charlie was at Tom's memorial last year. Charlie and I worked on a poetry grant program together many years ago and he is a happening kind of guy, currently learning to sing the blues (I already know how). There is a link to one of his pages already on this blog. He was asking about you, Tom, in particular.
So, everybody read the directions and send me a comment.
Some of Us
Dennis Sullivan, Beverly Osborne, Tom Corrado, Edie Abrams, Art Willis, Alan Casline (all seated); Paul Amidon, Mike Burke, Tim Verhaegen, Mark O'Brien, Barbara Vink, Philomena Moriarty

The blogmaster (mistress?) is getting verrrry clever & secret but she always did dazzle us. We had some fine poems last week. I loved Mike Burke's. He really knows how to get to the bottom line of life.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy Florida - Key West?

I'm just trying this out to see if the instructions work. I have no comments. I am nothing. All is well.
ReplyDeleteBarbara - I just found an essay by Charlie Rossiter in the last "Patterson Review." I gave the anthology to Dan Wilcox. This last edition of Patterson was dedicated to the 50th anniversary of "Howl," with many essays/poems about Ginsberg. I myself have never met him - and didn't know he was in Chicago, so thanks for the info.
ReplyDeleteAlas - I have a HVWG board meeting on the 10th - it runs until 8:00. So unless we finish early, I'll miss our next meeting. Enjoy Florida!
