Bring on the poetry…
Last Friday I attended a reading put on by some of the graduate students in UT’s Creative Writing program. Steve Sparks and Jesse Graves read poetry and Kate Williams read an excerpt from her novel. All three did a fantastic job.
That same night, my friend Caroline headed over to UNCA to see Mary Oliver. Color me jealous, but it was sold out before I even heard about it.
UNCA is having Robert Bly in on April 25. I’d like to go but that’s the one night a week my poetry class meets and considering my prof deemed Bly a “pompous ass” I doubt he’d cut me slack for ditching his class to go hear Bly. Ah well.
