in your ear


Today I went to the In Your Ear reading series at the DC Arts Center. Wade Fletcher, who worked on Phoebe with me, read some of his poetry. Also reading were poets Shanna Compton and Kevin Thurston. I showed up late because of metro delays, so I didn't get to hear Kevin read. Anyhow, Shanna read from her latest book, For Girls (& Others) out from Bloof Books. She read funny poems and drank beer. Jennifer Knox had to cancel last minute, unfortunately.



That is a picture of Wade's chapbook, Snitch Culture, which came about as part of his involvement with the e/chap kollektiv from dusie press. I am reading it now. I am glad Wade gave it to me.

I have a video of Wade reading a poem, but it is bad quality and I am having trouble with my camera. I might try to post it later.
