If you want or have interest, you can feel free to read "Weep, Like a Cedar in Lebanon" or "I Was There" at the poetry reading. I only wish I could be in Philly to support you on Sunday!
Also, Asharaf, please note that I am moving to http://barkowitz.wordpress.com effective immediately...
Thanks, Daniel... I wish all the poets who contributed to Katy's Call to Arms, which was the seed for this reading, could be there to read their own work... It would have been so wonderful!
Oh my god, thank you for such a touching letter! To have someone put as eloquently as you did the unceasing cycle of frustration and desperation that I, and you, and so many others are going through.... It takes a heavy boulder off my chest, it makes all those feelings of futility that threaten to pervade me ever so frequently almost vanish. And for that, I thank you immensely!
I'm sorry I wasn't there, Asharaf, but I'm glad the reading went well. And thanks for pulling together the vigil, I sent the information to the SUSTAIN list and I will definitely be there.
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who feels helpless sometimes. Thanks for your words, they give voice to my pain.
Hope the reading went well and you raised buckets of cash!
Poetry readings are wonderful testaments to our humanity. i am glad yours went well.
