 poets tomorrow at Occupy the Banks

Dear Poets,
I just received a note from Katherine Ball & Yoko Silk about involving
poets & musicians tomorrow's Occupy the Banks (see below).
 
Perfect!
 
Who can come?
 
Yoko, what are you picturing?
 
All best,
Kaia

I can be there--sounds great! Related to some conversation in the
other thread, here's a clip from YouTube of a human mic poetry
performance at Berkeley yesterday (I have no idea why it's sideways).
Geoffrey O'Brien read "A Supermarket in California," Lyn Hejinian read
"The Day Lady Died," Judith Goldman read John Clare's "The Badger,"
and I think there were a few more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdZSNSXC_2k
 
All best,
John

Thanks for that clip, John. I love it.
 
& I'll be there, too.
 
anyone else?

Hi Yoko,
It looks like it will be John Beer, Nicky Tiso, and me, but others
might join up. We're thinking of reading via human microphone--here's
a link that John Beer provided of a poetry reading in Berkeley done in
that way--

Perhaps we'd read a 1-2 poems each--either our own or poems we choose
of others?

Hey Poetistas, brother poetasters, fellow travelers, anarchs, and
radical aestheticians, etc.
 
I tried to wiggle out of my dental procedure, but sadly I will be
strapped down. I wish you all well. And look forward to joining the
events immediately thereafter. Perhaps if anyone is around we can
meet up. My phone number is 415-902-7276.
 
Best,
 
Standard
