A Luminous Night and the Following Day
I had the enormous pleasure of reading at Lithic Bookstore/Gallery and Press in Fruita, Colorado, a few miles from the Colorado/Utah border. Hosted by the owners, Danny Rosen and Kyle Harvey, both considerable poets in their own write, the reading was not only well attended but lively, various, and fundamentally joyful. In addition to reading with Danny and Kyle, there were the extraordinary Jack Mueller, Jennifer Rane Hancock, Sandra Dorr, and Frank H. Coons. I also got to meet—finally, after years of being a fan—poet and visual artist Wendy Videlock.Read More

Reading Cardenal with Cardenal
Last night I had the luminous experience of reading beside Ernesto Cardenal. This was a hastily put together event on the Regis University campus, in the St. John Francis Regis Chapel. Despite the late notice of Cardenal’s appearance (most folks didn’t hear about it until the day of the event), an audience of 50 or so mostly young people turned out to hear him. My old friend Victoria McCabe had emailed me the previous afternoon to ask if I could help out by reading the English versions of Cardenal’s poems. The poet wanted his poems read by another poet.Read More
