GUTS reading @ dixon theater w/Charity Coleman and Jess Arndt, curated by Dia Felix

 

Last night my "do i really have to be an astronomy nerd" friend and I decided to procrastinate further about our duties

Now Dia Felix is a person whose name has come up here and there and if you are a poet  you will know a lot more about her than I do, but just her demeanor the few times I have met her have made me want to know more about what she writes. I assume the time will come (unfortunately not at this weekend's Spring Thing @ Poetry Project, since I must instead heed the call of the mountains) sooner or later. In the meantime, I know the work of her friend, Ana Božičević

Who is a genius

I wonder what she is up to now.

And wether she still has that amazing voice and intonation when she recites.

None of these will ever be published.

Everyone's shine



I have ridden my bike around the neighborhoods these days, through the neighborhoods, repairing flat tires, writing dedications, wanting a series of revelations
