The past few days...

 For those of you who weren’t at the Ginsberg reading on Saturday, you missed an amazing event. The many different sides of Ginsberg’s poetry were on display through the voices of nine readers. Ray Tatar also read with his wife from The Book of Martyrdom and Artifice to open the set. There was free wine & water to help augment the 103 degree heat which kept many indoors for the night.
 
It was at the reading where I met Stuart (SLiC) who was gracious enough to exchange two of his broadsides, Confessions of a TAB Drinker & The Dream, for a copy of my pillowed in the steap. For those of you interested in SLiC’s poetry, he can be found here:

SLiC works at Temple #2 which opened its doors Monday. I’ve been a Temple fan for quite some time and I’m looking forward to experiencing their new place. www.templecoffee.com
 
And speaking of third-wave coffee, I discovered last night that Roseville’s very own Bloom (www.bloomcoffee.com) is serving up some great coffee just up the way from me. For a few years now I’d been frequenting It’s A Grind on Cirby & Sunrise, but they have closed their doors recently. Visit Bloom’s website for more info. They’re open from 6am-11pm daily.
 
Lastly, I now have a Twitter account to which I will be posting one-line poems and event announcements so, if you’d like to become a follower, I can be found at twitter.com/dphunkt

I credit Ginsberg for changing my entire approach to writing. It's such a shame that some of his work is quoted as cliche now.  I get my screen name from "Sunflower Sutra" which is one of my favorite poems.
