December 2009

My own recollection of an event a mere four months ago was that the stage was set, literally, for something different to occur and it did. The array of poets was incredible considering that some of the most impressive talent there came from a walking distance of the Soundry itself. Bernadette Geyer and Allison Brown frequent the Soundry often. Ann Forstater was brilliant. Peace was great. I got to meet Tony Mancus of Flying Guillotine Press and to hear Peace and Saul Rosenberg perform.

It was at least an almost magical evening. A fantastic beginning. More than I had conceived possible. WOW!
