4 good readings last night at the Bowery. Very bold to have 4 men poets on the bill: Joel Lewis, Mitch Highfill, Mike DeCapite, Edmund Berrigan read, in that order. Each different & well-prepared. Joel read about his upbringing as a jazz fan, Mitch riffed on Emily Dickinson, Mike read a moving story ~ how he loves New York City! & June!, and Eddie's works were compact, witty, & wise. The series, in its second year, continues to attract & create a community.
