Poetry at the Pulp presents feature poet Landon Godfrey

About a month ago I visited the Orange Peel’s private club PULP for an open mic event. The event featured Keith Flynn and the Holy Men followed by an open mic. This weekend I read on the Asheville Poetry Review Facebook page:

POETRY AT THE PULP open mic night on Wednesday, October 6 at 7pm. Sponsored by Wordfest and The Asheville Poetry Review. Feature poet: Landon Godfrey, whose book of poems, “Second-Skin Rhinestone-Spangled Nude Soufflé Chiffon Gown,” selected by David St. John for the Cider Press book award, will be published February 2011. Come join us and share your work with one of the best crowds in Asheville. The Pulp is located underneath The Orange Peel on Biltmore Avenue. See you there!

If you are unfamiliar with Landon’s work, I recorded on of her readings at the Flood Reading Series, Sunday March 29, 2009. Should be another fine evening at PULP tomorrow night. I look forward to seeing you there.

Can an autumn morning really evoke a song?

The chilly 39°F weather reminds of the first time I heard ‘Today’ by Smashing Pumpkins. I don’t know. Maybe it’s the innocent sounding tune married to the dark, ironic lyrics. Maybe the song reflects the weather–beautiful, but with a chilly bite. Maybe it’s the fact that the song first hit the mainstream radio like a throat punch about this time of year almost two decades ago. Maybe I just need another cup of coffee.

An itemized list of where a typical earner’s taxes go would include $625.51 for Medicare, $229.17 for combat in Iraq and Afghanistan, and $28.09 for NASA. See a receipt of other things that made the list.

anyone remember 1994? how about live’s ‘i alone?’ for some reason that song haunts me this morning…
