I've earned a feature booking!

I'm one of nine poets who have been selected to read a classic poem and one of my own inspired by it on Thursday, April 2nd, at 7pm as part of the National Poetry Month reading at the Avenue 50 Gallery in Highland Park. I'll be performing T.S. Eliot's "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock" and my poem "Joe Sphincter". The event will be hosted by Xochitl-Julisa Bermejo.
