chewing more than can be bitten
I was curious to see if anything productive would come from forcing myself to a 30 poems in 30 days pace, since it's such a contrast to my usual writing habits. However, it has been very hectic and I am a little behind.
The main reason is because I have decided to focus most of my National Poetry Month energy on some other ambitions. I am involved with some cool events literary events that take place downtown and I occasionally even go over to the East side, but there is a poetic void on my side of town. So I formed a group (the Rorschach Poetry Collective) with a few other "neighborhood" poets (Jessica, Jonathan, Bakeem and myself) to promote and spread poetry throughout the West Valley, this month. We are organizing two big events in the next two weeks and we already have several others waiting for us.
This week we will have a reading at Glendale Community College
and next week we will have a showcase at the West Valley Art Museum.
I will post all of the details later this week, but both of those will probably become regular events.
This will be interesting.
