I just went to a poetry reading at the downtown library, hosted by my Lit and Environment professor and his colleagues at Exquisite Disarray Publishing.
The featured poet was Jeremy Halinen, whose book (pictured above) was released today. I had never heard of him before, but - MAN! - his stuff is good. Very bold. Maybe I'll post a poem later, when I have more time. He has a very brave voice and a very interesting view as a gay man who's been through some adversity. He could be right up there with Saul Williams. He's got something special.
I bought the book and got it autographed. Yay! Nothing like some good poetry to get back in the game. I've been pretty downtrodden lately, but this sure helped me out.
