So, this is what crazy poets live for: readings in friendly settings. I did 3 poems: "No Debate Now", my reaction to the Las Vegas shootings; "Saturation", a matrix poem commenting on the political-sexual landscape and "Autumn Shade" a love lyric for my sweet wife.
I was the last reader up, out of 12, so that was auspicious, I thought. I'll take a win, because 5 women colleagues were highly congratulatory. (I think they were mainly hooked on the love poem).
