The end of the semester and the hangover from National Poetry Month have me feeling all William Carlos Williamsish,
”Lifeless in appearance, sluggish
dazed spring approaches—”
And heck, since spring last all of three day around here, I should probably revise this to say something about the fist of summer on the horizon.
All that said, I am still very excited about the last reading of this busy season. I’ll be reading with my Trinity University colleague, Andrew Porter, and with the memoirist, poet and critic Paul Christensen. Details below.
Friday, May 9 @ Gemini Ink, 513 S. Presa, 6:30 pm

San Antonio is hopping with poetry this month! The Office of Cultural Affairs has a complete calendar of events. Poems about birds, poems and vegetarian food, haiku hikes and free copies of The Wasteland. What’s not to love? Check it out.
And, if you are in Austin this weekend, also check out The Blanton Museum’s Poetry Project.
The kickoff event is Sunday from 1-4.
I’ll be reading a new poem about this painting.
