Time Again

Time to bring Brunswick poetry back to the fore. The Slant Light Drop-in Workshop at Beans just had its fifth of ten Monday evenings. (Please hang out with us at 7p.m. from now until and including March 16. Non-poets welcome.)
Why take art when you have to buy paint and canvas? That and the cost of piano lessons are what made us poets in the first place. We are the one-pair-of-Cons-and-somebody-else's-basketball kids. We make art out of the raw material of language. On paper towels.
The good news is that the 4th annual "Slammin' in the Belfry" may finally see the wheels of "Regular Folks" poetry in Brunswick turning on their own. No arm twisting. All those people in the packed houses who left Beans in past years saying, "I can do that" are coming back around. At the workshop tonight we had two people say: "Definitely. Count me in."
So within the next few days we'll be contacting past winners and those who have (Virgilio, Z-R, &) come close to taking the mike in the past. Get in touch at poetsrebrunswick@gmail.com to ask questions or express interest.

To submit something to be printed here, send it to Slant Light Poetry of Brunswick.... poetsrebrunswick@gmail.com. 

Publication is open to friends, cousins in Indiana & anyone.

Do not confuse this with trying to bring culture to Brunswick. It's time to take some of the "culture" out of poetry.
