Poetry Reading at Word Up Community Bookshop

Above is a clip from “Pizza Day” (f.k.a “Joy Had No Use for E”), which I had the pleasure of reading at @wordupbooks on October 23. Poets Patricia Brody, Lucille Lang Day, and Alicia Ostriker also read poems inspired by the theme “Why Poetry Matters” in this challenging time. (October 2023 at Word Up Community Bookshop at Amsterdam & 165th St.)

(“Joy Had No Use for E,” p. 2)

“Joy Had No Use for E,”-Miracle Monocle, University of Louisville, May 2022
