I’ve mentioned my little book, The Richard Poems a bunch here. Launched in November last year. I’ve shared a few (audio) readings along the way to publication —
and then a couple that have come out since the release:
But there at the top you have a video poem, I’m reading Summerslam, 1988 — a piece from early in the book. A scene-setter I guess.
I also will include here a bonus video of a handful of poems from the book — being read for the first time, and as you’ll see (and hear) chosen on the fly:
This Friday, Feb 21, I am taking some of these poems, and many more, and performing them on stage with a band. If you buy a ticket, all the money will be donated to Women’s Refuge. Just $10 a ticket.
You can even watch some rehearsal footage to get an idea of how it’s going to sound:
Buy your ticket/s to the show!
Let me know if you’d like to see more video content, or hear more audio content.
