From Bothell, I’ll speed back to Bradner Gardens for a gig with the Jim O’Halloran Quartet, one of the highlights of my summer. It is an amazing place to hear music and the band is always sympathetic behind the poems. Come say hello. I’ll be reading some postcard poems from this season. Info below.
Poetry, Paul, and peace thriving, summer of 2024!
Thanks for reading, Lorin. See you soon.
